The Skinny: Wilson is a magnet school for the city of DC. The school serves several neighborhoods, including Georgetown, Glover Park, Chevy Chase, and Tenleytown. However, there are many out of boundary students that come from all parts of the District.

The school's student body represents 85 countries and the students come from 40 different schools in the city. The school mascot is the Wilson Tiger; its colors are green and white; and its motto is "Haec olim meminisse juvabit", a Latin phrase meaning "In days to come, it will please us to remember this". The phrase comes from Virgil's Aeneid; Aeneas says it to his men after a storm.
