It’s SPIRIT WEEK here at WMS! Thanks to all the students and teachers who rolled out of bed this morning and wore their PJs to school today. You’ve got school spirit — yes you do!!
.
Now here’s the rundown for the rest of the week: Spirit week continues on Tuesday is Switch It Up Day — students dress like teachers, teachers dress like students. On Wednesday, wear your best flowered shirt for Hawaiian Day. Thursday will be a blast-from-the-past with Decade Day. And finally, Friday is our favorite holiday tradition: UGLY SWEATER DAY!! So get into the school spirit, wolves, and BE A PART OF THE PRIDE!!

Calling all actors, singers, and technicians! Auditions for the WMS Spring Musical — Disney’s “Alice in Wonderland, Jr.” — are scheduled for TODAY in the auditorium during ASP 1 only.

Break a leg!
