  • And now for a “technology tip” from Ms. Solomon!

Help Request” form through the WMS website. Ms. Solomon’s got the solution! So submit today — and get yourself back online.

  • Did you know that over 12 million toothbrushes and COUNTLESS beauty products end up in landfills and oceans every year? It’s creating an environmental catastrophe!  To help this worldwide issue, WMS is starting a recycling drive!  Students and staff are encouraged to bring in their used dental, hair care, and beauty products — and drop them off in the designated bins outside of room 115. Everything we collect throughout the year will be sent to a special recycling facility. See Ms. Warden with any questions. Let’s make a difference, Williamsburg!

  • And now it’s time for WOLF PACK PRIDE!!  Big news from the music department — 19 Williamsburg students auditioned and were selected for the District 12 Honors Choir this year.  They joined with hundreds of the best singers from around Arlington and Falls Church in a pair of amazing performances at Washington-and-Liberty High School last weekend.  Congratulations to:  6th grader Chloe O!
