PSAT Testing Tuesday for 8th Graders
Every Northwest ISD 8th grader is automatically registered to participate in the PSAT 8/9.
Taking the PSAT can encourage a student to start thinking about life after high school, about college and career goals, and about the education needed to reach those goals.
Students will arrive at school with their current school ID and multiple #2 pencils with erasers. Testing should be complete after 1:15 pm and students will have an adjusted bell schedule for the remainder of the day.
8th Grade parents, please see your emails from Counselor Terry Harris for more information.

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!
