Ms. Kathi Wilson

Kathleen S. Wilson has been passionate about education for as long as she can remember. Born and raised in Brooklyn, NY she attended a Catholic school through the 8th grade. As a student she was often relegated to the back of the room because of her talking and poor performance on classroom tests. She struggled to ‘fit in’, in a system that depended on rote memory and a strict code of behavior. She rarely had a star on the Star Chart. Kathi and her family moved after 8th grade to Long Island where she attended public high school. She qualified for gifted classes and graduated at 16. Kathi attended Marywood University receiving a BS in Secondary Education and later attended Rider University where she earned her MS in Counseling Education and her MEd. in School Administration. Working with other young parents she opened a licensed preschool outside of Princeton, New Jersey. Years later, she was one of a group who advocated for school district reform of leadership and policy for the betterment of education and services for all stakeholders in suburban Philadelphia. T
