Wilson Achieves AYP

Congratulations to the Administration, Faculty and Students for achieving AYP for the fourth year in a row! The Wilson community is committed to success and providing our students with a world-class education.

Get Involved!

Research studies have shown that children do better in school when parents or guardians are involved. What are some ways that parents can be involved?

• Read aloud every day. Talk about books and stories.
• Ask your child about his or her day at school. Talk about the day's events.
• Monitor your child's homework and studying.

Wilson teachers nominate a student each week to be honored. These students exemplify Wilson Pride through their outstanding attitudes, commitment to educational excellence and positive behavior.
