Attention seniors and families:
WLS is planning to host another fantastic trip to NYC in April. There is an important meeting on 10/20 at 6PM in the cafetorium. Some things will look different this year because of NYC mandates, so plan to attend if you have questions or are just interested in learning more!
Attentions parents/families of current 8th and 9th grade students:
Are class trips returning? We sure hope so! Historically, we take our 8th graders to Washington D.C., but because this trip was cancelled in both ‘20 and ‘21 we are inviting current 8th and 9th graders to join us!
There is a parent meeting Wednesday, 10/20 at 5:00 PM in the HS cafetorium,. Please join us to learn more!

Mr. Miller’s 8th grade Social Studies classes are learning about Colonial America. They have studied the religion, government, the founding fathers, and daily life of the 13 colonies. On Thursday students were able to enjoy the beautiful weather and try out some games similar to what colonial children would have played! They were able to draw similarities to modern day games and enjoyed learning how the games have evolved over time. It was a great day!
Senior Gabby Williams went over 2000 career assists during last night’s senior night volleyball match up against Northeastern! Congratulations, Gabby!!

Our fourth graders celebrated doing their Tiger best with the first Gold Apple Award ceremony of the school year! Good Apple Awards are given to students who stay remain on green on their color chart each day. This means that students have homework done and turned in on time, assignment books and Friday folders are always signed and there are no behavior issues. Students who have less than four ‘clip downs’ may also participate in the Good Apple ceremony activity. This month our fourth graders really did awesome because ALL were able to participate! Awesome job to all of our kiddos, and their adults who encourage them to be great each day!
