Landon Massey, Maddox Black, Gabriela Jackson, Terryanna Carroll, and Jakhia Morgan were our random point earners for showing ARMOR this week! Way to go! Keep up the good work!
Ms. Angula Davis is providing a trivia question for Black History month in the mornings at WMS. Today the question was "Who was the first African American person to be seen on a stamp?" 5th grader Molly Smith was the first to buzz in with the correct answer. She said her teacher last year read a book about it. The correct answer is Booker T. Washington! Great job Molly!
We are so thankful for Jason Fries and Jason Alan's Barber College for coming to provide free hair cuts for some of our male students yesterday!
The kids are excited and ready to read. The Scholastic Winter Book Fair arrives Feb. 14 at Washington Middle School, and a big stack of books bought with eWallet is the perfect way to usher in 2023!
Cheer Workshop 2023 is right around the corner. If you have a 4th, 5th, 6th, or 7th grader that is interested in cheering at WMS or BJHS, this is a great way for them to test the waters, learn new things, and have fun. We look forward to seeing new and returning faces! -Coach Hodnett & Coach Moore
