Today we will be following the A-Day schedule. That means you’ll be attending periods 1, 3, 5, and 7 — plus Wolf Time — so be sure to double-check that you’ve got the correct books and binders for class. Again, this is an A-Day. See your TA teacher with any questions.

Are you interested wrestling this winter? Then get a head-start on the competition by joining the wrestling coach for some conditioning drills — from now through Wednesday during ASP 1 in the auxiliary gym. See Ms. Hogwood with any questions.

Calling all 8th Graders!! Thanks to EVERYONE who participated in the Arlington Tech field trip last week.

The Annual Fall PE Gear Sale is almost over! This TUESDAY is your LAST CHANCE to purchase hoodies, long-sleeved t-shirts, joggers, or leggings through the online store — accessible through the WMS website.

.
This game was truly a team effort — as EVERY single player contributed to the scoring, and the defense was impenetrable. Way to go, baller wolves!! [clap]
