October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month, and WMS is proud to support the cause — but we need your help! All this month, we’re raising money for Breast Cancer Awareness with a “Pie the Teacher” contest! And YOU get to choose who gets the pie!

Three brave teachers from each grade have volunteered to be pied. Starting TODAY at lunch, students can donate money to the teacher of their choice. And whichever teacher raises the most money will be pied on October 30th! So let’s come together as a community, have some fun, and support Breast Cancer Awareness. Thanks for your help, wolves!!
