7th grade girls volleyball players were presented with their 17-0 Conference champions banner today! Congratulations, girls!!!
The 7th grade students at WMS used their Teamwork skills to complete a task during Counseling Lesson. They were asked to write words using a marker with 3 strings attached. The students could not touch the marker with their hands. The students responded that it takes a lot of communication to write words on a paper using only the strings to guide the marker.
The classes also discussed how communication is a huge part of teamwork with any team you are on. Such as sport teams, band, choir, Trap, Cheer, work, and family.
Take a look at some upcoming events at WMS as we close out the first semester and begin the second semester. This newsletter will also be sent home with our students by the end of the week for your refrigerator paper copy!
