Looking for ways to contribute to some of the incredible departments at Wilson? Please checkout the wishlists for PE, Counseling, and the Clinic.

We are hoping to make this our BEST Fall Festival event yet, and you can help! Here's how:

• Purchase early bird admission bands now and add on Fun Tickets for even more opportunities to play games and get in on the action! 
• Consider becoming a Fall Festival sponsor! Several packages are available which include tickets and other benefits, but also helps the PTSA maximize its impact at Wilson!
• Make a donation of supplies or time needed to make the event run smoothly. Click here or the image below to sign up!
