- Today we will be following the B-Day schedule. That means you’ll be attending periods 2, 4, 5, and 6 — so be sure to double-check that you’ve got the correct books and binders for class. Again, this is a B-Day. See your TA teacher with any questions.
. - Calling all MUNNERS!! The Model UN crew will be meeting TODAY during ASP 1 in room C105. Participants will be getting PERMISSION SLIPS for the upcoming conference on November 13. More details to come. See Mr. McDermott with any questions.
. - Believe it or not, but the 1st Quarter is rapidly coming to a close. Which means: it’s almost time for the Wolf Paw Drawing!!! That’s right — the 1st Quarter Wolf Paw Drawing will be held this FRIDAY during TA. But you MUST submit your Wolf Paws no later than this WEDNESDAY by 1-o’clock to be eligible. And if you’d like a sneak-peak at the prizes, go check-out the display case by the library. There’s some great stuff in there — so stop dawdling and turn in your Paws by Wednesday!
. - And now for an update on PE uniforms!! T-Shirts and gym bags were delivered last week. But due to problems with the the supply chain, the shorts may not arrive for another week or longer. These delays are out of our control and your patience is appreciated. And one more thing: any student who didn’t order a uniform may still do so — just get an order form from your PE teacher.
. - Put your creative genius to the test! TODAY is the LAST DAY to submit your project to the annual PTA Reflections Contest. This year’s theme is: “I will change the world by…” Submission forms can be found in the WMS Library. But you need to act FAST. Submit to the PTA Reflections Contest today!!
. - We’re down to the FINAL FOUR in the Halloween Candy count-down! Fan-favorites like Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups and Nestle’s Crunch are no more — but there’s still a quartet of sweet treats to choose from.
.
Here are the matchups in the second-to-last-round: it’s Hershey’s Bar versus Twix, and M&M’s versus Twizzlers! Just go to the Library Canvas Course to cast your vote for Favorite Halloween Candy. We’ll have the results this Friday — and may the best candy win!!
. - It’s “Red Ribbon Week” here at WMS — raising AWARENESS about the dangers of drug use, and to educate young people in our community about drug-free activities. Thanks to all the students and staff who wore their favorite TEAM JERSEY for today’s theme — Team Up Against Drugs!!
.
And here’s the schedule for the rest of the week — Wednesday is PINK DAY for Breast Cancer Awareness; Thursday is School Spirit Day; and Friday is WEAR RED DAY. And be sure to join your counselor and members of the Williamsburg Youth Task Force during lunch today to show your school spirit for Red Ribbon Week!!
