WBMS Family Update Week 2
August 30, 2026
Students are doing a great job... in all grades... wearing their lanyard in the halls. Thank you for your cooperation to follow this expectation. We appreciate our students and staff wearing their lanyards to show proper identification.
We are excited to report that there were ZERO 6th grade incidents reported to the Dean of Students for personal tech device violations during week 1.
Keep it up WBMS! We are so proud of you.
Lifetouch Photo - Photo packages will be distributed at Open House
West Bloomfield Middle School
Your child’s school pictures are now available! To view them online, please log in to your account at mylifetouch.com. If you don’t have an account yet, you can create one using your email address. You’ll need your student’s ID number or their portrait id and access code to locate their photos.
Thank you! —The Lifetouch Team
YEARBOOK orders are through a separate company.
Upcoming Lifetouch Picture Day Date:
Picture RETAKE DAY for everyone at WBMS is October 21st.
If your student retakes their photo, this is the one we publish in the yearbook.
Once the retake is processed, the original photo is no longer available.
Each student received a planner in Advisory Class. It is an expectation for students to use their planner.
Check it after school & before school to make sure you are prepared for the day.
Keep it with you all day, every day.
If you are new to the district or coming into 6th grade, you will be issued a WBSD Chromebook device.
Students are not allowed to use personal devices at school. Each student is expected to bring their Chromebook to school, fully charged, every day. Our Go Guardian and Gaggle system are in place, for safety measures, and we require students to use our devices.
Thank you!

LOCKER Information
The locker dimensions are:
Height: 34 in.
Inside width: 14 ½ in.
Depth: 11 in
Students will have room for their coat, backpack, and other personal items.
Please remember to keep your cologne, perfume, and body sprays at home. We have students/staff with allergies and there are NO glass bottles allowed at school.
Keep all valuables at home.
- Padlocks must remain on the locker.
- DO NOT take the lock home.
- DO NOT store the lock inside the locker.
- DO NOT share a locker--- keep your combination to yourself.
- DO NOT swap locks or lockers with another student.
Each locker is assigned a specific lock with a serial number. We have a system.
Contact Mrs. Marshall or Mr. Evans for questions or concerns.
Your items are protected when the lock is secured.
Students MUST use the school provided lock on their locker. There are very few specific documented circumstances when Mr. Evans will approve an alternate lock.
Below please find a suggested supply list for the upcoming school year. In August, at orientation, your student will receive a school agenda to use throughout the year. If you need help providing these supplies for your student please contact your student’s counselor.
Every student will need a set of headphones to use with their Chromebook Computer. Students will NOT be allowed to wear the headphones throughout the day/between classes. We recommend an inexpensive set of wired headphones or wired earbuds for your student to leave in their locker here at school.
It is recommended that students leave unnecessary items at home and only bring what they need to school.
Some of our students have found it helpful to carry a binder with a shoulder strap. Here is a sample.
