WMS: As we approach the end of Trimester 1, we’d like to share some reminders about the importance of school attendance. While students who are ill should stay home, it is important that students attend school daily in order to develop good habits for middle school, high school and beyond. It is important for students to arrive on time and put forth their best effort during the school day. Good attendance habits promote academic success, support positive connections with peers & teachers and reduce school anxiety over time. Students who arrive between 7:30 and 7:40 have plenty of time to eat breakfast, go to their lockers and arrive to homeroom by 7:50. We thank you for supporting your child in developing positive attendance habits.

As you may be aware, a disturbing nationwide trend has made its way to Massachusetts.
While the Attleboro Public Schools community has not received any reports of these messages yet, they have been reported in several states, including Alabama, California, Mississippi, New York, Ohio, Pennsylvania, and Tennessee.
In these states, students of color have received texts that have some variation of a message that they have been “selected to pick cotton at the nearest plantation.”
This is an abhorrent trend that does not reflect our values as a school community or a people. Racism in any form has no place in our schools, our community, or our society, and we will stand firm in our efforts to eradicate it.
Massachusetts State Police have been notified of the instances that occurred in Massachusetts, and police in other communities are working with the Commonwealth Fusion Center to investigate the matter and share resources. Please contact your local police should you have received a message as described above.
Thank you for your continued support.
Good Morning WMS Families - this morning at appx. 8:45 AM, WMS had a fire alarm go off unplanned. The students exited safety and the Attleboro Fire Department responded quickly & identified the issue with one specific smoke detector. Students were back in class shortly thereafter. We thank the fire department for their quick response and commend the students for their behavior during the alarm. Thank you.
We love learning at Wamsutta!
