Overall my experience at Wilson has been alright. As far as administration goes there are some teachers and counselors that aren't favorable in the student community. I have had some problems with accommodations and extra aid and they don't do a very good job advising their resources for mental aid or academic aid.

Wilson High School is a very diverse school with multiple different pathways- WAVE, LPS, ARTS, BioMED, and TECH. Their sports programs and band/music programs are excellent and the staff are very supportive.

This school experience was great. Even though COVID affected some of my tight school years, the school administration tried their best to make our experience great.

Graduating class of '23, this school has only gone down since i got here in 2019. Wilson does not have enough discipline when it comes to kids wandering campus during class or when it comes to vaping and drug use especially in bathrooms. Instead of punishing the children involved their solution is t...
