JayDEl Wilson (’96, Spanish; ’99, M.Ed.), is the Assistant Principal
at Virgin Valley High in Mesquite, Nev. where his responsibilities vary
from master scheduling to supervising athletic activities.
“I went into education administration because I had a principal in
high school that was willing to do anything for me and I want to be a
positive influence on the students I come in contact with,” says Wilson.
As a student and now educator, Wilson knows first-hand the importance
of good relationships with students, and is grateful to SUU professors
who took time to offer him assistance.
“My academic advisor in the education program, Paul Wilford, was
positive and helpful throughout my undergraduate and graduate degree
programs. I knew that I could go to Paul with any problem that I had
and he would help me solve it,” said Wilson.
Wilson’s word for the year is choose. “I will choose to be a better
father and husband, I will choose to be happy, I will choose to be a
positive influence on those around me,” he says.
He and wife Marshelle Murdock Wilson (’98, education; ’14 M.Ed.) have
four children, Britton (16), Dylan (14), Abbie (10), and Connor (9).
All of their children are involved in sports and both of their older
sons earned Eagle Scout awards. As a family they enjoy camping, hunting
and playing sports.
