Our second child is in her 2nd (7th Grade) year at Wilson and we are still as happy as ever.

After leaving Richardson Schools for Plano, we found that the whole school does not have a friendly attitude towards the African American and Hispanic communities and some teachers have very little patients with students who are struggling.
