WMS Daily Announcements

Author Visit – Thanks to the generosity of the WMS PTO, graphic novelist Mat Heagerty will be visiting WMS on March 31. He will be sharing his story about growing up with dyslexia and finding a route to reading through graphic novels. He is now a graphic novelist and teacher of creative writing at the college level. His story emphasizes the value in appreciating our differences. In addition, he will be teaching the students to create and illustrate a graphic novel character and teaching a small group creative writing workshop.
Escape WMS: Zombie Night – What is Escape WMS: Zombie Night? An immersive, fast‑moving game where students team up to solve challenges, avoid the “infected,” and save the school. Parent Help Needed!! We need parent volunteers to help keep the fun on track—guiding teams, reminding them to stay calm and quiet, and helping kids work together to solve puzzles. Volunteers get to be right in the middle of the excitement. No acting or special skills needed! Date has been changed to Friday, May 1st from 6:15-8:30 pm. Sign up information on ParentSquare.
