  • Attention 8th graders! This week, ALL 8th graders will be visiting the Arlington Career Center. These tours are NOT just for students who plan to apply to Arlington Tech. Many of you will take courses at the Career Center while in high school, and this is your chance to see everything it has to offer. Permission slips MUST be turned-in ASAP — or you WILL get a call home!!  See Ms. Boyers in the main office with any questions.

  • Tomorrow is MIX IT UP DAY at WMS!  This international program helps kids break down barriers, meet new people, and make new friends.  Mix It Up Day is a school-wide initiative, so all students in all grades MUST go to the cafeteria for lunch — where you’ll be assigned to a random table.  It’s a chance for you to branch out from your “friend circle” and see WHO ELSE is out there.  Mix It Up Day at WMS — we’ll see you at lunch!!

  • And now for an update on WMS athletics!  Two new sports are gearing-up this week.  First — It’s time to start the 2018 Girls Soccer Season!!  Tryouts will run all this week — 6th graders on MONDAY, 7th graders on TUESDAY, and 8th graders on THURSDAY — all from 2:50 to 4 on the turf field.  Athletes MUST have a physical on file to participate.  See Mr. Girard with any questions.

  • Attention 6th and 7th graders — It’s time to GET DOWN and BOOOOOOOO-gie!   Just in time for Halloween, the WMS Spook-tacular Skeleton Stomp is coming at you — courtesy of the WMS PTA.  The 7th grade party is scheduled for TOMORROW; and the 6th grade party is one week later, next TUESDAY, October 30th — both during ASP 1 and 2 in the cafeteria — so you can still take the late bus home. There will be food, a DJ and dancing, games, raffles, prizes and more. And please — despite the Halloween theme — NO COSTUMES.
    .
  • The WMS Kindness Club’s “Hurricane Relief Fundraiser” is going strong! All cash and check donations can be left in the donation boxes in each grade level holding area before TA. All money raised will go to relief organizations providing essential help and services to the victims of Hurricane Florence and Hurricane Michael.  And remember — whichever grade raises the most will be eligible for a TA drawing. Do your part for Hurricane Relief — because every penny counts.
    .
  • Put your creative genius to the test! The annual PTA Reflections Contest is now accepting submissions from all grade-level students.

Arena-style conferences are THIS WEEK — Thursday from 4:30 to 7:30 p.m.; and Friday from 7:30 to 11:30 a.m. No appointment is necessary, just come on in and have a chat.
