Weather Information
As the seasons change, we wanted to remind our community about our campus procedures for inclement weather.
General Student Pick Up: Buses will depart within 15 min of the end of the day and parents should make arrangements to pick students up by 4:30 PM unless they are participating in extracurricular or supervised during other after school activities.
As the weather changes, here is a timely link to the NISD School Closings information with FAQs such as:
- How are decisions made to cancel school?
- When would I get the call that school is canceled, delayed, or releasing early?
It's also a good time to verify in Home Access Center (under "Registration") the adults that can pick up your student from school early. Having accurate pick up information helps our office staff's efficiency in the case of emergencies and unusual events. Email tjeffers@nisdtx.org with any needed changes.
How can I stay current with Wilson Info?
We send out a Wilson MS email at least once every two weeks. An archive of emailed newsletters can always be found at this link.
Campus Calendar is Always Live at this Link
Athletics Calendar is Always Live at this Link
Other ways to stay in the loop are to follow us on social media via Facebook, Instagram, or Twitter: @TruettWilsonMS
Text messages and emails are sent to the contact information you provide in online registration, but if there are ever changes, please alert our registrar Ms. Jeffers at tjeffers@nisdtx.org. We don't want you to miss a thing!
How about students? How do they keep up with campus information?
Our campus has a daily advisory period with the three main goals in the graphic below. Learn more about Advisory 101 at this link!
Twice a week, we air our student created program called The Wilson Word! In addition to posters around campus and Wilson social media accounts, students use our broadcast to stay up to date about events and to promote positive culture and communication. As a caregiver, most of your campus information is from this biweekly newsletter! Still, you can watch The Wilson Word anytime via our YouTube channel. Hit "subscribe" and "notify" for alerts when new videos are uploaded.
Thank YOU for staying up to date on campus activities and the Wildcat Way! With such an active community, it benefits the students when we are all on the same page!
