Athletics

We believe strongly in fostering each child's sense of responsibility for their personal and physical well-being. In addition to regular P.E. classes as part of our core curriculum, Wilson students participate in a wide variety of athletic activities during and outside of the school day. 
After School Running Programs
Read, Right, & Run is a standards-based, sustainable, enrichment program that endorses and supports existing school curriculum. After 26 weeks of hard work, the program culminates each year when the students run their final 1.2 miles at the Annual Race Day in Forest Park.

Girls on the Run inspires girls to define their lives on their own terms. Throughout the season, the girls make new friends, build their confidence and celebrate all that makes them unique. At the end of each three month session, the girls participate in a Girls on the Run 5k event.  

Let Me Run is a seven-week running program for pre-teen boys led by trained coaches in the Wilson community. The team meets twice a week for an hour and fifteen minutes, and the boys exercise and participate in fun activities. They learn how to express themselves, reach personal goals and improve their overall wellness. At the end of the program, the boys celebrate their hard work with a 5K road race.
