This Month at the WIS

A Message from Principal Laughlin

Dear Parents and Guardians,

I hope that you and your family had a relaxing December break. As we move into the new school year, I wanted to remind you of the importance regular attendance has on a student's academic success. Should your child have difficulty coming to school on a consistent basis, it is suggested to reach out to the school counselors for support in remedying the situation. Our counseling staff have many ways to help our students find success.

Students are encouraged to participate in the wide variety of after school clubs and activities offered at Wall Intermediate School. Information on the days clubs/activities that are offered can be found on the WIS webpage.

Current 8th grade parents and students are encouraged to attend the Wall High School Class of 2030 Information Night taking place Thursday, January 29th at 6:30 PM in the Wall High School Auditorium. Parents and students will learn more about academic programs, electives, and the scheduling process at WHS. There will be a brief presentation followed by an opportunity to talk to teachers and supervisors from each department.

Sincerely,

Mr. Laughlin
