Today we will be following the C-Day schedule. That means you’ll be attending periods 1 through 7 — so be sure to double-check that you’ve got the correct books and binders for class. And remember, there is NO Wolf Time today. Again, this is a C-Day. See your TA teacher with any questions.
.
Did you miss Picture Day last month, or did your picture not turn out so well? Then you’re in luck — because “Picture Make-Up Day” is TODAY in the Auxiliary Gym during all PE classes. If it’s your first school picture, just go on down. But if it’s a retake, then you must bring your unwanted picture packet with you to exchange. And remember — if you don’t take a picture, then you WON’T be included in the WMS yearbook. See Mr. Koutsouftikis with any questions. And say cheese!
.
Attention all students!! There will be NO after school clubs nor late buses either TODAY or TOMORROW. So everyone should plan on leaving the school at the 2:35 dismissal. Once again, no clubs and no late buses this Wednesday and Thursday. See Ms. Hogwood with any questions.
.
Attention Wolfbots! The WolfBots Robotics Club will NOT be meeting after school on Thursday. The next practice will now be held after Winter Break. Once again, tomorrow’s Wolfbots practice is CANCELLED. See Mr. Dudek with any questions.
.
Who wants cupcakes?! Ms. McFerran’s and Ms. Brown’s 6th grade TAs will be selling cupcakes this THURSDAY and FRIDAY during all grade-level lunches. Cupcakes are just 1-dollar each, and all money raised will go to the Michael J. Fox Foundation for Parkinson’s Research. They’ll also be raising awareness about Parkinson’s by completing the “Will Run for Cupcakes” 5K race. Thanks for your support, wolves, and enjoy your cupcakes!!
.
Calling all athletes! The WMS wrestling and boys basketball seasons are starting soon. Interested players must turn-in your physicals by December 16th. Wrestling practices begin on January 3rd. There are NO TRYOUTS for wrestling, and EVERYONE is welcome to join! But there are tryouts for boys basketball, which are also scheduled to begin on January 3rd. See Ms. Hogwood with any questions about wrestling or boys basketball.
.
Calling all actors, singers and dancers! The WMS Spring Musical — Shrek, Jr. — is coming soon! Auditions are scheduled for January 9th and 10th after school in the Auditorium. Interested performers should prepare a short monologue and song for the audition. For more information, just scan the QR code located by the theater. The show also needs a DANCE CAPTAIN to teach the choreography to the cast. See Ms. Mac if you’d like to be considered. Break a leg, everyone!!
.
And now it’s time for WOLF PACK PRIDE!! The boys Soccer team earned a hard-fought TIE against Gunston yesterday — 0 to 0. And with that tie, our team has officially WON the Arlington County Soccer Championship!! Congratulations to the entire team for a job well done all season long. Way to go, soccer wolves!! [clap]. Boys soccer is looking to complete their UNDEFEATED season in their final match today against Swanson. Good luck, wolves!!

Wolf Pack Pride continues with the girls Basketball team. They defeated Gunston yesterday — 42 to 28. Props to Rebecca for scoring a game-high 14 points; and to Ainsley, Gigi, and Nora for doing a great job on defense. And CONGRATULATIONS to the entire team for finishing a wonderful winning season — they went 8 and 2 on the year. Way to go, basketball wolves!! [clap]
.
Wolf Pack Pride wraps up with a special message from the Girls Basketball team to all of their fans for packing the stands and supporting the team all season long. Plus, a huge “Thank You” to the fantastic cheerleaders for performing with enthusiasm and spirit. And a final shout-out to Mia D., Schuyler B., Liam F., and Luke C. for doing the books and running the clock. Thanks for being a part of the pride!! [clap]

And finally — It’s SPIRIT WEEK here at WMS! Thanks to everyone who got into the spirit for “Sports Day!” You’ve got spirit, yes you do!!
.
And here’s the rundown for the rest of the week: Tomorrow is Throwback Thursday — it’s a blast from the past. And Friday is everyone’s favorite holiday tradition — Ugly Sweater Day! Get into the school spirit for Spirit Week — and be a part of the Wolf Pack Pride!!
