For some of us, the best years of our lives were spent at Wilson High School, in the heart of our nation’s capital. Swirling round in our heads are memories of football games, basketball games, dances, homecoming events, and spring breaks.
The Alumni Association can help you replay and relive these memories. We can navigate you towards reuniting with classmates through reunions or other events. We can keep you apprised of news of the school and happenings of other graduates.

I need a paragraph or two about the revamping of the website, and would appreciate hearing from anyone who can tell me about how it was done.
This is in reply to a question posed in the most recent issue of the Alumni Beacon. There were most definitely AP classes at Wilson in the early ’70s. I graduated in’71, and took AP Biology and AP English senior year. My older sister also took AP classes in 1970. This was nothing new and different then. I don’t know which year AP was initiated, but the classes were around by 1969.
Class of 1986 hear, go Tigers. My nephew lives in Brookland, I am an Alumni of Wilson as well as other relatives in our family. We would really like to have him attend Wilson and wondered if any consideration is giving to relatives of Aumni?
