Yesterday’s STARS Black History month Question and answer is:
The first “sit-in” at a segregated lunch counter was in Greensboro, North Carolina.
Today’s question is: the PGA was only for whites until which golfer joined?
A. Charles Sifford B. Lee Elder C. Tiger Woods or D. Pete Brown?
If you think you know the answer, come down to the main office to make your guess. Stay tuned tomorrow for the answer and another trivia question.
Are you curious about what some people in our WMS community will be observing starting today? Today begins the Christian observance of Lent. Lent begins 40 days before Easter on Ash Wednesday. You may see some students and faculty wearing ashes on their foreheads to be reminded that we are only on this earth temporarily and that it is our spirit/soul that hopes for eternal life. Lent today is meant to prepare your spirit for Easter by making sacrifices (usually giving up something you enjoy eating or doing), asking forgiveness, and prayer. People who observe Lent often do not eat meat on Fridays during these 40 days. There are students and faculty at WMS who will be observing this holiday. We wish all people at WMS observing this holiday a peaceful Lenten season.
Tomorrow, Thursday afternoon due to Department meetings after school, there will be no after school activities after school. All students please plan to leave the building at dismissal.
Don’t forget to check the activities boards outside the main office for all after school activities.
