Now that Halloween is over — chances are you’ve got a LOT of leftover candy. So why not give donate it to a good cause?! The WMS Kindness Club is collecting UNOPENED Halloween candy for “Operation Gratitude” — a charitable organization that sends care packages to Veterans, First Responders, and Deployed Troops.
.
The Kindness Club will be collecting candy TODAY and TOMORROW before school in the donation bins outside of the cafeteria and in the main office. The Halloween Candy Donation Drive — Give what you can, and help spread kindness to others!
.
Today is the LAST DAY of the 1st quarter, and you know what that means — it’s almost time for the 1st quarter WOLF PAW DRAWING! That’s right — this FRIDAY during WOLF TIME, YOU could be the winner of some amazing gifts and prizes. They’re all on display in the library showcase, so come take a look.
.
But to be eligible, you must turn-in your Wolf Paws to the grade level boxes located by the cafeteria no later than THURSDAY at lunch. Again, you only have until THURSDAY to submit your Paws for the drawing, which is on Friday. Good luck, wolves!!
.
And now for an important announcement from our school librarians! Do you have any OVERDUE LIBRARY BOOKS??? If you checked out a book from the school library in September or October — then it’s probably about time to turn it back in. Teachers will be passing out overdue notices in TA this week — and students are asked to PLEASE look in your lockers and at home for any long lost library books.
.
How do YOU get around town? The Mobile Commuter Store will be visiting Williamsburg on WEDNESDAY during all grade level lunches. You’ll be able to purchase “Student SmartTrip Cards” — which provide for discounted rides on ART buses, Metrobus, and Metrorail. The cards are just 2-dollars to buy — and then you can charge it with as much money as you’d like. See Ms. Mays in the main office with any questions.
.
And now for a “Transportation Tip” about riding the bus. If you’re ever planning to take a bus that’s not your own — like if you’re going to a friend’s house after school — you MUST bring a note from home to the main office NO LATER than your grade level lunch. Again, do NOT wait until the end of the day to get a bus pass — because there isn’t time and you’ll miss the bus! See Ms. Argenal in the office with any questions.
.
And finally today — it’s an exciting time in the virtual world of gaming and technology. And here to keep you up to speed on the newest innovations are WOLF-TV’s very own gamers: John S. and Avery D. with GAMESHARKEY ECHO!!
