WMS Weekly Warrior

Good Afternoon WMS Community,

Happy School Spirit Week. Thank you to our Alliance leadership group for providing a fun week as we head into Halloween weekend. As October comes to a close, please remember that the trimester ends on November 25th. As always, please check PowerSchool for missing work. Please don't wait until the end of the term to turn in missing assignments.

This week features a fun theme each day, starting with Twin Day today. Tuesday is Pirates vs. Princesses, Wednesday is Mismatch Day, Thursday is PJ Day, and Friday concludes with Grade Color Day at our school Spirit Rally.

The lost-and-found tables in the café and locker rooms are overflowing with clothes, water bottles, and other belongings. On Friday, we will donate any unclaimed items. If you are missing any of these items, please have your student check the lost-and-found areas this week.

The Halloween Dance is this Wednesday from 5-7 in the school gymnasium. If students are wearing costumes, please ensure they are school-appropriate. Accessories such as weapons or other dangerous items will not be permitted at the dance. Please see the linked letter for all the specifics of the school dance.

We wish the girls' soccer team good luck as they play in the middle school BL playoff championship this afternoon. We also wish our cross-country team the best as they head to Shepaug to compete in the Berkshire League Championships. The cross-country team will wrap up its season on Thursday with a little Halloween fun! The Zombie Run begins at 3:45 PM and features runners from WMS, Rochambeau, Thomaston, and Plum Hill!

We would also like to congratulate all the fall sports teams on their great seasons. Winter Sports will officially begin in mid-November. Please look for future schedules with tryout times and dates.

Have a great week,

WMS Admin

Stopfinder is an easy-to-use, all-in-one app that allows you to have the most accurate information about your student’s bus schedule at anytime from anywhere. You can also create GeoAlerts for your student, which will notify you when the bus has arrived or departed from any location on your student’s route, including their assigned bus stop and school.

GeoAlert Alert Zones can be created for individual students allowing you to customize the Alert Zone based on their bus route.

Stopfinder can be downloaded for free from the App Store or Google Play. Directions for the download can be found at
