Wilson ISD would like to determine transfer eligibility for the 2024-2025 school year before the end of this school year. If you are a current transfer student, now is the time to re-apply. We are accepting transfer applications for re-submission until May 2nd. If you wait until after this date, you may not get a reply regarding your acceptance or denial until close to the first day of school. Also, transfer renewal is not automatic. Every transfer needs to submit a new application every school year. Current transfer students will be receiving a new application to take home. Attached is a link for the form as well. It can be returned in person or emailed to szaragoza@wilsonisd.org

Over the weekend, distinguished 2020 alumni Wilson High School graduate Marcos Noyola Castanon was tragically lost in a car accident. Wilson ISD would like to extend their condolences and help support his family during this time. Any contribution would be helpful to alleviate the financial strain on Marcos's family. There is an official GoFundMe set up. We would love anyone who knew Marcos or has a special memory of him to share. We would love to keep his memory alive.
