How would you like to be featured in a special section of the yearbook this year? From now until the end of October, the WMS yearbook is accepting pictures for both its “Summer Vacation” and “Now & Then” sections of its annual publication. If you’ve got some fun pics, just email them to elizabeth.briones@apsva.us or bring them down to room 136. See Ms. Briones with any questions.

Hey, everybody — are your ready to be KIND? The WMS Kindness Club is proud to present: SOCKTOBER!! All month long, students and staff are encouraged to donate new socks for the homeless. But that’s not all: new gloves, mittens, hats, and scarves, plus new or gently used jackets and blankets are also welcome donations.
.
Just drop your items in your TA donation box to participate. And the TA in each grade with the most donations wins a TA breakfast! So do your part and be kind those in need. Together, WE CAN MAKE A DIFFERENCE!!

Listen up, Wolves! That grungy old sweatshirt you’re wearing has GOT to go. It’s time to show your Wolf Pack Pride in STYLE. For a limited time only, you can order from a FIERCE new collection of Spirit Wear — including a hoodie sweat shirt, sweat pants, and long sleeve ‘T.’ Just get an order form from the WMS PE Department, or download a copy from the WMS website. Orders must be received by next MONDAY, so act fast!

As we continue our celebration of Hispanic Heritage Month, students in the lunchroom will be treated to “Cumbia” and “Punta” music today. Cumbia is a traditional courtship dance from the Caribbean; while Punta is a traditional dance from numerous Central American countries. Remember — Hispanic Heritage is American Heritage!!
