Attention 8th grade chorus members: your after school rehearsal at the High School begins at 3 pm today.

Intramural Basketball will be in Gym A today after school and the fitness center is open.

The answer to yesterday’s Black History Month trivia is: Madam CJ Walker invented a line of cosmetics and hair care products. Today’s question is: In what city did the National Guard prevent nine Black students from attending a segregated school in 1957? If you think you know the answer, come down to the main office to make your guess. Stay tuned tomorrow for the answer and a new question.

Today’s Spirit Week theme is “Anything but a Backpack”. We are seeing some creative ideas already in our school this morning. Tomorrow’s theme for Spirit Week  is “Rhyme without a Reason”. Work in trios, pairs, or individually to dress in something that feels like an opposite, e.g., cat in the hat, clocks and socks, etc.

6th grade tutoring for students in the METCO program will take place right after school today. Please report directly to the library.

The bus to Boston will leave at 3:30 today.  The late bus in Wellesley also leaves at 3:30. All students need to listen for the PA announcement for their departure from WMS.

Anyone interested in signing up for the WMS Fencing Program this spring can pick up a sign-up form on the intramural board outside the cafeteria or in the main office. All forms need to be turned into Mr. Johnson no later than March 20th.  Any questions, please see Mr. Johnson.​​​​​​​

Have a good day everyone!
