4/26/2022 - Williamsburg

Today we will be following the B-Day schedule. That means you’ll be attending periods 2, 4, 5, and 6 — so be sure to double-check that you’ve got the correct books and binders for class. Again, this is a B-Day. See your TA teacher with any questions.
.
Attention all students and staff! The APS “bus driver shortage” has been resolved — so there WILL be after-school activities and late bus service today. Once again, activities and the late bus are up-and-running this afternoon.
.
And now for an important announcement about the Technology Student Association. All TSA meetings will be CANCELLED until May 17th. Once again, there will be no TSA for the next 3-weeks. However, WOLFBOTS Robotics WILL be meeting, as usual. See Mr. Dudek with any questions.
.
Calling all 6th, 7th, and 8th graders! We need a DO OVER on class T-Shirts! ALL WMS students will be receiving a FREE class t-shirt to celebrate the end-of-the-year activities in June. But there was some confusion yesterday that we need to clear up. All T-shirts are ADULT sizes. So we’ve DELETED all of yesterday’s orders — and everyone needs to order AGAIN.
.
To get yours, please complete the online Google Form by Monday, May 9th — located on the WMS Website and the WMS Student Info Page in Canvas. If you miss the deadline, you’ll still get a shirt BUT it might not be the right size. Once again — yesterday’s orders were deleted, so EVERYONE should go online and order their T-shirt TODAY!!
.
April is Arab American Heritage Month! It’s estimated that nearly 4-million Americans have Arabic roots — so this month is an opportunity to recognize the rich diversity of people who make up our shared country.
.
President Joe Biden wrote this about Arab American Heritage Month last year — “The Arab American community is essential to the fabric of our nation, and I am honored to be part of this celebration of Arab American culture, heritage, and contributions to American society.”
.
In other words — Arab American history IS American history.
.
And now it’s time for WOLF PACK PRIDE!! The All-Virginia Choir put on an AMAZING show in Richmond last weekend — and it featured some AMAZINGLY talented students from WMS.
.
Congratulations to Chloe O., Lucy C., Harper H. and Natalynn P. — who joined hundreds of the most talented middle school singers from all over Virginia in this 3-day musical event. Way to go, singing wolves!! [clap]
.
And finally — it’s been 2-months since the Russian invasion of Ukraine, and the end is nowhere in sight.
.
Student-reporter Casey H. reports. Roll tape!
