Bulldog families,

I hope all of you enjoyed time with family and friends over the Thanksgiving holiday. We have less than two weeks before we head into the winter break and there are lots of fun things happening here at Wilson including Spirit Week, Band, Orchestra, and Percussion concerts, volleyball playoffs, and our holiday dance to name just a few. Please keep reading for information regarding all this and more.
