Happy Thanksgiving from the WRMS faculty and staff!
So much fun with students and staff at our first Advisory Happy Day! Among other things, students worked together in a scavenger hunt, “The Best” game, a grateful tree, and Advisory poster making.
Awesome Volleyball for a Cause event after school! Students and staff had a blast playing against each other, and we filled a pickup truck bed with all the food for St. Andrew’s pantry!
Weekly, the WRMS staff does a Friday “Casual for a Cause”. For the past two weeks we collected non-perishable items and monetary donations for Helping Hand Food Pantry. We dropped off over $200 and 4 boxes of food and supplies today!
Bravo to the cast of Cafe Murder!! Join us again tomorrow night at 7 to see if you can solve the crime!
