Takedown — reversal — PIN!! The WMS Co-ed Wrestling team is looking for more WRESTLERS!! No tryouts are necessary, and ALL are welcome to participate — whether you’ve been grappling for years, or want to try it for the first time. Wresting is a GREAT workout, has GREAT competition, and leads to GREAT friendships. Interested athletes should meet in the Auxiliary Gym TODAY at 2:45 for practice. See Ms. Hogwood with any questions.

And now for a special message from the 8th grade Family and Consumer Science class. This is Allie, just one of the many sweet puppies and dogs at the Animal Welfare League of Arlington. You can help Allie and her canine friends by donating old T-shirts which will be recycled into dog toys. Just bring your donation to room 128 — and Ms. McFerran will give you a Wolf Paw for your support. Thanks for your help, Wolves!!

Interested students — for both on stage and back stage — should sign-up on the call board outside of room 228. But remember that the play is an after-school CLASS so it is a serious commitment.

And now for a “wellness tip” from our school clinic! It’s cold, flu, and covid season again — so here are three simple strategies for keeping our shared environment HEALTHY and SAFE! First — WASH YOUR HANDS!! Second — Fully cover your mouth and nose when coughing or sneezing. And third — if you’re not feeling well, please STAY HOME. Together, we can stop these germs and viruses BEFORE they spread. See our school nurse with any questions.
