This school is the worst school in the city. It shouldn't even be named a classical school because it's not. The students that attend school are rude & have no respect for one another. walking from class to class is sometimes worst then walking around new york city. the layout of the school looks like a jail. i am currently trying to go to st.anthony high where i feel more comfortable. if i were you, i would send them to st.anthonys. i give this school a 1/10 & i give st.anthonys a 9/10.
I am a Wilson alumni and this school helped me prepare for the UC school system. They help put you on a path that will get you into the school you want as long as you put in the effort. I graduated from the Distinguished Scholars program which requires students to maintain certain academic rigor. They offer plenty of AP courses, all with great teachers that work hard to prepare you for the test. The athletic department is superior and is balanced by an equally distinguished academic curriculum. I enjoyed my 4 years here and felt very safe. The location is very accessible to students from various parts of Long Beach. I would recommend this school to anyone who is looking for a great academic program that will prepare them for higher education.
Ever since my first year at Wilson, I have received so much support from all of my colleagues. The support provdided from the district and the on site staff is what makes teachers successful at what they do.
My son graduated from Wilson in 2007. He is now at UCI. He has told me that he felt very prepared form college. He attributes being so well prepared to his schooling at WHS. He did take a lot of AP courses and just missed getting the Distinguished Scholars madallion. Wilson has it's problems but overall is a very good school and the people of Long Beach should be proud of this school.
