WMS students and staff had the incredible privilege of hosting our annual Veterans Assembly, welcoming hundreds of veterans and their families. It was a moving and meaningful event where our students showed their respect and gratitude for the brave men and women who have served our country. We are so proud of our students for their heartfelt performances and tributes, honoring the sacrifices made by our veterans. It is always an honor to open our doors to these heroes and their families, and we are deeply grateful for the opportunity to recognize their service and commitment to our nation. Thank you to all who attended, participated, and helped make this event so special. Special thanks to Mrs. Hickman, Mrs. Moses and Mrs. Pond. To our veterans, we thank you for your courage and sacrifice. You are an inspiration to us all.

Being present helps students: ✅ Build stronger friendships ✅ Stay on track academically ✅ Develop healthy habits for the future Let’s work together to ensure your child gets the most out of every school day. Thank you for making attendance a priority! 📚✨ #EveryDayCounts #WMSProud #StriveForSuccess

📢 Mock Election Day Fun! 🗳️ Yesterday, our students had the exciting opportunity to participate in a mock election to vote on President! It was so much fun watching them stand in line, go through the process, and engage in this real-world experience. This hands-on activity gave them a deeper understanding of our democratic system and the importance of voting. Look at post to see some great pictures of our young voters in action!

Bus two is running about 20 minutes behind this morning. Sorry for the inconvenience.

WMS students celebrated Día de los muertos last week in Mrs. Dougherty's Spanish classes. They shared memories about loved ones who had passed away and honored their memories by creating art throughout the week. "It's not about the quality of the art produced, but about the time spent remembering the people we hold in our hearts." Students remembered grandparents, aunts and uncles, cousins, and siblings. Día de los muertos is a celebration of lives passed and our deep and true connections with those lives.

Check with administration for location. - No Transporting Other Students: Students are not allowed to transport other students. - Leaving Campus During School Hours: If a student needs to leave during the school day, a parent, guardian, or person designated by the parent must come into the office to sign them out. - Unauthorized Departures: If a student leaves campus in their vehicle without being checked out in person by a parent or guardian, our SRO will be notified. All families will be receiving a PARKING AND STUDENT VEHICLE USE document in the mail to sign and return to the school. Thank you for helping us keep WMS a safe environment for all!
