The SOLs keep rolling along!! Today, the 7th grade will be taking the Civics and Economics SOL; while the 8th grade will be taking the Science SOL. The test is scheduled to run from 8:03 to 10:33. TA teachers have all of the room assignments, so check with them if you don’t know where to go.
.
And here’s some more information about the test: The ONLY materials you may have with you are your iPad, a pencil, a water bottle, and a book. NO OTHER MATERIALS nor ELECTRONIC DEVICES are allowed — no phones, smart watches, air pods, e-readers, nor anything else.
.
Also, once the testing session has begun, students will NOT be allowed to go to their lockers. So make sure you’ve got everything you need BEFORE the test begins. See your TA teacher with any other questions. Good luck on the SOL, wolves!!
.
While the 7th and 8th grades are taking their SOLs, the 6th grade will be going to TEAM TIME — where your teachers have prepared some alternate activities. Your TA teachers will tell you where to go.
.
Once the SOL and Team Time periods are over, we will be following a MODIFIED A-Day schedule. That means you’ll be attending periods 1, 3, 5, and 7 — plus Wolf Time — so be sure to double-check that you’ve got the correct books and binders for class. Again, this is a MODIFIED A-Day. See your TA teacher with any questions.
.
Attention 7th and 8th graders! Are you ready to embark on an exciting journey filled with rhythm, movement, and creativity? Then look no further! The award-winning Yorktown High School Colorguard is recruiting new members for the Fall semester. To learn more, students are encouraged to attend the upcoming Open House TONIGHT from 6 to 8pm in the Yorktown Band Room. Give it a try!!
.
We’ve got spirit, yes we do, we’ve got spirit, how about YOU?! It’s SPIRIT WEEK here at WMS! Thanks to all the students and staff who showed their school spirit and dressed up for today’s theme: Mismatch Day!!
.
And here’s the rundown for the rest of the week: Friday is Class Colors Day — 6th grade blue, 7th grade white, and 8th grade black. And remember: the grade with the most school spirit all week long will be awarded an additional 500 points at the Pep Rally this Friday.
.
Day 3 went to the __th graders for “Anything but hoodies, Uggs, and Crocs Day”. Who do you think will win today? Get into the school spirit for Spirit Week — and be a part of the Wolf Pack Pride!!
