Wolfpack is a school-wide collaborative effort to deliver individualized targeted instruction, intervention, extension, and appropriate support for the benefit of all students. ALL students at Wilson receive 30 minutes of Wolfpack instruction each day. During Wolfpack, students set personalized goals to meet and exceed proficiency in their grade-level essential standards.
The Literacy Intervention program is an intense reading support group for students. Students with multiple reading concerns are typically candidates for literacy intervention. In addition to classroom reading instruction, students who qualify for intervention will receive 30-40 minutes of small-group reading instruction, four to five days a week, with a reading teacher or specialist. Intervention Literacy has a balanced literacy approach focusing on accuracy, fluency, and comprehension. The components of a literacy lesson include rereading a familiar book, word work, writing, and introducing or reading a new book. Close collaboration among the intervention teacher, classroom teacher, and student families is aimed at promoting accelerated learning to meet proficient reading goals.
What is PBIS?
PBIS stands for Positive Behavioral Interventions and Supports. PBIS is about teaching and promoting safe, respectful, and responsible behaviors. Students are recognized for making positive choices that follow our school expectations. When students do not follow expectations, they are re-taught the appropriate behavior and, when necessary, are given an Office Discipline Referral (ODR).
Youth-Tutoring-Youth is a program that provides high school students with an opportunity to give direct tutoring assistance to elementary classrooms under the guidance of a supervising and coordinating teacher.

Through the Junior Achievement program, our students receive knowledge and skills in financial literacy, work readiness, and business from volunteers in the local business community.
