The First Day is Here!

The first day is almost over and the students could not have done a better job! There were a few issues with the buses learning where new students live, so if your child missed the bus this morning, we do apologize. Please let us know as soon as this happens so we can get the issue resolved. Aside from that, the day has been rolling right along! We met with all three grade levels to review the Code of Conduct. Students should come home with a copy of this today, but it can also be found on the main WMS site. A few changes this year:

• Accountability, Responsibility and Respect are the big words for the year.
• No hats inside the building. They can be worn outside during PE, but once a student comes inside, hats should be removed.
• A few dress code changes. Please review these with your child.
• Students have 4 minutes between class changes. Items such as backpacks or sports bags should be kept in the lockers rather than in class.
• Student pick up: At the end of the day, if you pick up your child, please make sure you use the lot to the right. The parking lots directly in front of the school will be blocked off. This is to make sure all of our students are safe with the crosswalks. We will have signs out this week as folks get used to the new traffic pattern.

Seeing the buses roll in this morning was terrific. The students have done an amazing job with the first day. Only a handful of lost children looking for a random class. We have had a lot of positive feedback from parents today, which helps us set the tone for the year. Everyone is about to start  4th block, so I am off to the halls. Have a great day, Wildcats!
