. - Brush your hair, wash your face, and smile for the camera, everybody — because next MONDAY is PICTURE DAY at WMS!!

. - And now, for a very special message from the WMS PTA. The 2017 No Frills Fundraiser is up-and-running!! This year, the PTA is trying to raise 40-THOUSAND dollars in 4 just weeks — all of which goes to supporting our school and shared community. And here’s the best part: if your parents donate to the fundraiser, then YOU are automatically entered in the weekly DONUT HERO drawing — and could be the winner of a free Duck Donuts breakfast for your entire TA!!
.
So without further ado, here’s the first very DONUT HERO drawing! DRUM ROLL, PLEASE!! The winner of the Week 1 Donut Hero drawing is: VICTORIA JONES and Mr. Hick’s entire TA!! Congratulations, the PTA will schedule your party soon. And if YOU want to be the next Donut Hero, tell your parents to go to the “WMS PTA” link on the WMS homepage, then select “No Frills Fundraiser” to make a donation. Thanks, wolves!!
