I currently have two boys attending Wilson, one in the 5th grade and the other in Kindergarten. I really like the administration, the principle is a sweetheart. She s nice, friendly, and engaged with both the parents and the children. There have been instances where I am in the school grounds and she is out in the yard talking to the kids and greeting parents. When my son was having issues adjusting to his new school we had a meeting with the teacher and came up with a great solution that worked for all of us. I think that keeping in contact often with both the teacher and the principle makes a difference in the relationship with parents as well as with the behavior of the children. Overall I think the academics are good, the school needs some TLC but the administration has no control over the CA budget which controls the money to fix older school but my children don t seem to mind and I haven t noticed any negative effects on the kids not the administration.

Wilson has an above average sports program with soccer, basketball, track and field, little league baseball, nationally ranked cheerleading team and an award winning after school program. The after school director is hands and lives in the community. The effect he had on my son is immeasurable. I would recoomend this school to anyone based on the after school programn alone.

The school's new principal is just wonderful. Ms. Neely-Johnson has actually allowed to have a class for children with special needs and everyone is very supportive. The teacher for this class, Ms. Permalino is just a blessing for my son, Nicholas. She has helped him in ways that I could never repay. He is currently integrated with a regular class although if it is too much for him, he is allowed to return back to his home room with Ms. Permalino. I just wish they could fix the exterior of the school. Also, the PTA/PTG needs to be aware that the class does exist in this school.
