5/3/2024 - Williamsburg

Today is an EARLY RELEASE day, so the schedule is a little different than usual. We will be following a modified C-Day schedule. That means TA ends at 8 o’clock, and then you’ll be attending periods 1 through 7. Be sure to double-check that you’ve got the correct books and binders for class. Again, this is a modified C-Day. See your TA teacher with any questions.
.
And now for a “testing tip” from our Testing Coordinator, Ms. Wielechowski! Next week, the entire school will be taking a pair of MAP Growth Assessments — in Math on Monday, and in Reading on Tuesday. In preparation, students are reminded to charge your iPads, get a good night’s sleep, and eat a healthy breakfast. You want to be at your best for the test!
.
And speaking of testing, did you know that MOST students will finish their tests BEFORE time expires? And that once you’re finished, you are NOT allowed to use your iPad? So you need to plan ahead! Students are encouraged to stop by the library and check-out a good book before testing begins. You’ll be glad you did! See our school librarians for a recommendation.
.
Give a Helping Hand to a four-legged friend! The WMS Helping Hands Club is wrapping-up the school year with its favorite project: a supply drive for the Animal Welfare League of Arlington! From now through next Wednesday, students and staff are encouraged to donate dog toys, pet food, leashes, or anything else on the “wishlist” posted around school. The collection bin will be located in the main lobby. Thanks for supporting the Animal Welfare League, and for helping their pets in need!!
.
If a picture is worth a thousand words — then the WMS Yearbook is absolutely PRICELESS! The 2024 Yearbook is on sale NOW! It’s just 45-dollars to buy — and you can order online through the WMS website. But fewer than 50 copies remain in stock — so make sure to get YOURS before they’re gone. Contact Ms. Briones with any questions. Don’t miss out on the memories!
