Technology

Technology can be the source of both great excitement and great anxiety in today’s world.  Wilson is a leader in enhancing learning across the disciplines with the innovative use of technology, while also promoting safe and responsible digital citizenship in our students. While many schools have added technology only recently, our students have been computer programming -- and learning to see failure as an opportunity to grow -- for more than a decade. Our award-winning Director of Educational Technology and Innovation works closely with the rest of our talented faculty to develop projects that creatively use technology to enrich students’ experiences in math, performing arts, and language arts, to name but a few.  Wilson students begin coding at an early age, a skill with not only practical use, but one that also teaches frustration tolerance, computational thinking, and interpersonal skills.

Wilson’s technology program is so highly regarded that our students have beta tested for Bloxels, a local app developer who strives to build tools to enable kids to explore both sides of their brain (the creative and the analytical) by expressing themselves and learning through the process of making video games.  Come see them at work- schedule a visit to Wilson today!
