Today we will be following an ADJUSTED ‘C-Day’ schedule with an extended TA. That means you’ll be staying in TA until 8:30, and then you’ll be attending periods 1 through 7 — so be sure to double-check that you’ve got the correct books and binders for class. Again, this is a C-Day with an extended TA. See your TA teacher with any questions.
.
And during your extended TA this morning, all students will be completing the online “Your Voice Matters” survey. TA teachers will provide you with the instructions. Once again, everyone should take the “Your Voice Matters” survey following the Morning Announcements.
.
Due to the extended TA, Best Buddies has been CANCELLED for this morning. Once again, there is no Best Buddies nor Special Olympics today. See Ms. Nance with any questions.
.
And now for a Technology Tip from Ms. Solomon! All students — please make sure that your iPad has been updated to the latest operating system — iOS 15.4.1. To check, go to Settings -> then General -> then About. If it’s not at 15.4.1, please update the software. Problems? Just submit a Student Tech Help Request Form and Ms. Solomon will get you back online.
.
Believe it or not, but this FRIDAY is the last day of the 3rd Quarter! So be sure to check StudentVue and talk to your teachers about any missing assignments or make-up work. Again, 3rd Quarter grades close at the end-of-the-week.
.
And now it’s time for WOLF PACK PRIDE! HUNDREDS of rising 6th graders visited WMS from local elementary schools this week. You may have seen them roaming the halls, or popping-in to classrooms throughout the day. Well, the event was a HUGE success — and it was only made possibly by the hard work and contributions of our students and staff.
.
A big THANK YOU to our 7th and 8th grade tour guides; to our band, chorus, and cheerleaders for their amazing performances; to the teachers whose classrooms were “invaded”; to our counselors and admin for organizing; to our very own mascot — William S. Berg — who made a special appearance; and of course, to all of our students for making those kids feel welcome in our school. Way to go, Wolf Pack!! [clap]
.
We’ve got spirit, yes we do, we’ve got spirit, how about YOU?! It’s SPIRIT WEEK here at WMS! Thanks to all the students and staff who dressed-up for WACKY WEDNESDAY. And here’s the rundown for the rest of the week.
.
Tomorrow is everyone’s favorite: PAJAMA THURSDAY! Just roll out of bed and come to school.
.
And we wrap it up with FREAKY FRIDAY — students dress like teachers; teachers dress like kids. So get into the SCHOOL SPIRIT all this week for Spirit Week. And be a part of the pride!!
