School Reviews

I have two children currently attending Wilson. I feel both of them are getting a great education. My daughter struggles with learning issues, and due to the smaller class room sizes the teachers have been more than helpful with giving her extra time one on one. I believe without this she would fail to succeed along with her peers. The staff goes along way to make school fun for the kids with special days, like ice cream days, free jean days, and my kids love the reading days. I feel my kids are getting a great education, and it is a good feeling to know your kids are spending the day at a school where people are expected to conduct themselves in a polite respectful way.
