Happy Summer WMS Family:

We hope that your summer break is off to a wonderful start. Just because school is out doesn't mean there is no learning. Please encourage your students to read this summer. Our Summer Reading Lists for each grade are now available. This is not a requirement but highly encouraged. The more students read, the better they will do in school. Here is our 6th grade Summer Reading List.
