Wamsutta Middle School

WMS: Congratulations to students inducted into the National Junior Honors Society last week! Thank you to advisors Ms. Boyer & Ms. Ramos for their work with NJHS & putting the evening together.

WMS: Thank you to the WMS Student Council & Ms. Cannata and Ms. Geysen for putting together over 100 hygiene kit donations for New Hope Inc. in Attleboro!

From the WMS PTO: Thank you to everyone for your support so far and we still have a few days to raise money and earn prizes. The students are having a blast with our boosterthon team rep Sam. Ask them about some of the cool games they are playing at lunch and extra prizes being won. A few details for the run- *we are NOT giving out t-shirts this year. Although the color does wash out I would not wear something to school that day that you wouldn’t want to potentially stain. Students are encouraged to wear white/light colors. They can also decorate their own tshirt for the event. * Run times The races will run as follows: 9:00 - 6th grade race (then they will go to Peace Garden for snacks from PTO) 9:25 - 5th grade race (then they will go to Peace Garden for snacks from PTO) 9:50 - 8th grade race (then they will go to Peace Garden snacks from PTO) 10:15 7th grade race (they will get snacks from PTO BEFORE race) 10:35 Final "color blast". 10:50-11:10 leaf blowing clean up *finger crossed for no rain- we have a meeting with the team to discuss a backup plan and we will inform you if it comes to that. *your student MUST be registered in order to run. This is essentially their “permission slip” to participate. *We are up to 22 states that we have received donations from. We would LOVE to color in our map with all 50! * NIGHTLY CHALLENGE – The class with the most new donations will earn Class Game Time! 💡Did you know that you can get 200 entries for a chance to win a daily giveaway prize… for FREE?

WMS: BUS 8 ONLY!: Bus 8 is running very late - it left WMS at appx. 2:45 PM. A problem on Bishop St. is preventing the bus from going beyond the Pike & Bishop St. stop. Students in that area have either already called home to arrange for pickup at WMS or have called to inform families they will be walking home from Pike & Bishop. Please call WMS (508) 223-1540 if you have concerns.
