From choir and band performances to music theory and composition, our school is filled with incredible musical achievements. We have upcoming events and performances this month that showcase the importance of music in our lives and school!

3rd Quarter Report Cards
Report Cards will be mailed home on March 20th. If you have any questions or concerns about your child's academic progress, please reach out!
ACT Testing
Our 11th graders will have the opportunity to take the ACT and 10th graders will take the PreACT on Tuesday, March 3rd. This is a rescheduled date from February.
The testing schedule for March 3rd will remain consistent, with students reporting to the same rooms and locations previously assigned. Please remember that a successful testing experience starts at home; we encourage all students to get a good night's sleep and eat a healthy breakfast on the morning of the test. Additionally, because the ACT is digital, please ensure your Chromebook is plugged in and fully charged the night before.
Below is some information to help students prepare for this test.
Early Release: March 6
Please mark your calendars for an upcoming change to our school day. On Friday, March 6th, Wilmington High School will be the proud host of the District Wrestling Tournament!

Lunch: Will be served prior to dismissal.
Buses: Will run their normal routes starting at the 12:45 PM release time.
