North Kannapolis STEM Elementary School is a Kindergarten through fifth grade school of approximately 300 students and 49 staff members located in Kannnapolis, NC. Our school has been in operation for generations and a lot of our students' parents and grandparents attended North Kannapolis. North Kannapolis is formerly known as Woodrow Wilson Elementary School and was renamed by the Kannapolis City Board of Education in July 2020. We have a wonderful staff with some newer faces, but veteran teachers who have been at this school for over 20 years. We pride ourselves on teaching the whole child as social and emotional skills are just as important as academics. We grow every student and meet them where they are. Our school focus is Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math and this will be our first year implementing a full STEM program. We are excited to expose children to multiple avenues of learning and implement a growth mindset in everything we do.
