The WMS 7/8 Scholars Bowl squads competed Tuesday at the Goddard Invitational. The 7th grade placed 3rd, the 8th grade placed 2nd, again. The 8th graders have placed in every meet this season.
The VETERANS DAY PROGRAM was held Monday at WHS, a tradition now for nearly 20 years (I think)...it's always an awesome program, a program that showcases some very important people, our Veterans in front of some other very important people, our children. It's a great combo and one worth attending each year on Veterans Day.
Mrs. Melissa Buchanan's "Youth Entrepreneurship Class" had their Market Day this week at WHS. After a lot of planning, the group went shopping on Monday and then on Wednesday, their pop-up businesses were setup and in action Wednesday during all "3" lunch periods. Profit reports are not in yet - suspect though there was more black than red on the post-day ledgers! The pics below are courtesy of WHS Yearbook Staff!
The "Crusaders of the Stage", under the direction of new drama directors Bob and Michelle Brown, opened Thursday evening at WHS. Well performed and received by those present. Originally scheduled for Friday evening also, that performance was cancelled and moved to Saturday due to Sectional Football action Friday at Sellers Park. The finale's will be performed on Saturday, a matinee at 2PM, and the last performance, 7PM. There's a large cast of characters:
