WHS FreshmAn Transition Hub
Welcome TO NINTH GRADE EXPERIENCE!
Congratulations, you've made it to high school! The next four years will have a tremendous impact on the direction you are planning on taking after you graduate. These years are going to be both exciting and demanding. The level of rigor and independence you will see in high school will challenge all of you in different ways. The goal in 9th grade is to ease the transition to high school and build skills and habits of mind to help you meet the challenges you will face in the future. The purpose of this site is to serve as a hub of information for your freshman year.
Important Information
Freshmen Orientation
Freshmen students will have orientation on Thursday, August 22, 2024 from 10 am - 1:30 pm and will start in the High School Lowerhouse Cafeteria (via the ramp door by Bulldog Field). The day will end with a club fair. This is a great opportunity for your child to acclimate to Wilson High School as well as make new friends. Please reach out to Ramón Márquez, 9th grade Assistant Principal at ext. 5032 with questions regarding the transition to 9th grade.
Summer Work
Students that are scheduled for AP US History, Honors US History II, and Honors English 9 have summer work to complete before the start of the school year. Teachers should have reached out to students scheduled for these courses to review the summer work. Summer information can also be found on the Summer Work Portal.
