Halloween and Red Ribbon Week fall on the same week this year. So WMS is going to have a little fun! This idea was sent to Mrs. Hale from one of our 6th grade students. She organized this and designed the graphic for us! Mrs. Hale was so proud, she couldn't say no.
This week is Homecoming Spirit Week and our students are really showing their spirit! Yesterday was pink day, to see our students in their pink outfits, check out our Facebook album titled, Homecoming Spirit Week- Pink Day!
