We are proud to recognize our students who were selected as this month’s Character Trait winners for courage! These students demonstrated bravery, stood up for what is right, and showed confidence in the face of challenges. We are so proud of the positive example they set for others. As we move into April, our new character word is perseverance—the ability to keep going even when things get tough. We look forward to seeing our students continue to grow and show determination throughout the month!

In Mrs. Woodall’s Sketch Art class, students are building their skills by sketching a variety of scenes, including rooms, buildings, and landscapes. These practice pieces are helping them develop the details and perspective needed as they begin planning their own graphic novels. We can’t wait to see their creativity come to life on the page!

Our current 6th graders will soon have the opportunity to explore their options for next year! On March 31, students will travel to the middle school during their Explore class for a special Electives Day. During this visit, they’ll learn more about each elective, meet teachers, and get a better idea of what interests them most. We encourage students to take advantage of this experience as they begin to think about their 7th-grade choices. It’s a great chance to ask questions, discover new interests, and get excited about what’s ahead!

State testing for Wilson 6th graders will take place next month.

ELA (English Language Arts): April 21–22

Math: April 28–29

To help students prepare, the Parent, Student, and Teacher Guides include test-taking tips, test objectives, and practice questions. Parents and guardians are encouraged to review these materials with their child.

These resources can help students feel more confident and prepared on testing days.
