VIOLA “OLIE” WILSON ELEMENTARY SCHOOL

Viola “Olie” Wilson Elementary School was approved by voters during the 2022 BISD Bond Election and will open for its first class in August 2024. Mrs. Wilson was a beloved elementary school teacher in Boerne for over 40 years, from the 1930s into the 1970s. After attending Southwest Texas Normal School in San Marcos, now Texas State University, she taught at the Balcones School from 1932-1933, and then at BISD for over four decades.

During her career, Mrs. Wilson taught three generations of Boerne children before she retired from the job she loved. Mrs. Wilson was a charter member of the Boerne Retired Teachers, which was founded on December 14, 1978, and later became the Kendall County Retired Teachers Association.

Mrs. Wilson was born on March 21, 1911, and passed away on October 21, 2006, and was married to her high school sweetheart, Robert Wilson, for 54 years before his passing. Mrs. Wilson was an active member of Boerne’s First United Methodist Church. Mrs. Wilson received 74 of the 315 community submissions to name the new school, which was the highest number of submissions any entry received.
