Attention 8th graders — or should we say, rising 9th graders?! Your high school Course Request Forms must be completed and returned to your counselor, Mr. Tuttle, by this FRIDAY at the LATEST. There are a ton of fun, interesting, and challenging classes to choose from at Yorktown. But if you miss the deadline, you may not get the one you want. So stop procrastinating, and turn-in your CRF!! See Mr. Tuttle with any questions.

And speaking of High School — Arlington Tech will be hosting an “Ice Cream Social and Academic Planning Night” for this year’s applicants on THURSDAY evening — 6:30 to 7:30 at the Career Center.

So come by, have an ice cream, and start planning for your future at Arlington Tech! See Mr. Tuttle with any questions.

And now it’s time for WOLF PACK PRIDE! The WMS boys Basketball Team just keeps on rolling along — scoring a dominant win over Gunston Middle School on the road yesterday — 46 to 28.
