Opened in 2003 with more than 1,100 students, Michael G. Wickman Elementary School remains the largest elementary school in the Chino Valley Unified School District. Nestled between the rolling green Chino Hills State Park and the lovely Los Serranos Golf and Country Club, the school site is often host to local wildlife including hawks and rabbits (after school hours, of course.) Wickman is the proud home of Winner the Wildcat, a championship track team, and a diversified collection of eager learners, parents, and staff. In May of 2008, Michael G. Wickman Elementary School was honored with a California Distinguished School Award. The CDSA flag flies high above the campus every day.♥
