BNL School Photos- Please see the online ordering instructions.

The PTO is hosting our first assembly with Brain Break Academy. This is the second year Wilson will be hosting BBA as it was incredibly well received by students and staff last year. We will have two 45 minute sessions where students will enjoy a “high-energy, interactive assembly, jam-packed with ridiculous stunts, wild games, wacky competitions, mind-blowing magic, laugh-out-loud comedy, and uplifting messages!”

Thank you to our fall festival committee led by Jackie Brown, with support from Courtney Bleifer, Mrdula Borse, Leti Joostema, Katie Bell and Laurie Kneiss.

Thanks to the incredible turn out, the PTO has raised enough funds to buy a much needed storage shed and new recess equipment. Each teacher has been asked to share a wishlist of toys/games for recess and we hope to be able to purchase most if not everything now that we will have a safe place to store it all. We will share more on this!

The PTO also supported the teachers on their pumpkin decorating contest.

We still need eight cars for Trunk or Treat on Halloween Morning, from 11am to noon. Signup here!

Our spirit wear is still on track to be ready by the end of October. Our teachers and staff will all get new tees too thanks to our fundraising. Thank you teachers and staff!

November Staff Stock Room- Please see the link to sign up.
