Beware: Spooky Song Sneak Preview
Here's a sneak peek of what 6th grade Band has been practicing for the past 2 weeks called Spooky Mansion by Timothy Loest. Click on the Spooky Mansion.mp3 link below to listen to it. The students have been working really hard and are doing a great job. It's hard to believe that Halloween is just around the corner!
Thanks!

Another New Offering at WMS
Career Exploration is a course for 7th grade students with the goal of providing students with opportunities to learn about all the career options available after high school and/or college. I’m so excited to be teaching this course because I want to enable students to explore their interests and find out how they can earn money doing something they enjoy! As we explore careers, I’ll highlight the agriculture (Ag) industry and the ways it connects our society. Students will have hands-on opportunities related to plants, animals, food, and much more!
As someone who is passionate about the agriculture industry, and teaches Agriscience courses at the High School, I’m so excited for 7th graders to begin their learning in this area! My goal is for each student to find career opportunities they’re interested in, be educated consumers (both in their educational and personal lives), and recognize their potential!
In addition to offering Career Exploration, students enrolled in this course can participate in FFA (Ag Club). If 6th or 8th grade students are interested in joining Ag Club, they can participate in our local FFA events and attend our meetings. FFA is one of the largest student-led national organizations that focuses on developing students' premier leadership, personal growth, and career success!
I look forward to seeing students thrive and dig into learning, and hope to have the chance to see them in High School Agriculture!
