Please take a few moments to review what you student's plan is for lunch. We have several students that are not bringing a lunch or taking hot lunch, yet ask to have some of what others around them are eating. With all of the germs going around, we do not want to encourage students to be sharing food or drinks. We also do not want to have students leaving lunch hungry!
Your support is greatly appreciated!
Thanks to All Who Contributed to the WOMS Giving Tree!
A special thanks to Jacobs Construction for their support of our Giving Tree!
Notification Reminder
This year, Parent Square will be the primary platform of communication. Please be sure you have set up your account. If you need assistance, do not hesitate to call the main office.
FlashAlert reminder: FlashAlert is still utilized throughout the metro. You need to update your FlashAlert account each year to receive their alerts.
A few reminders for families
- The rainy season has begun. We try our best to have recess outside whenever possible. Please be sure to send your student to school with a jacket or sweatshirt to help keep them warm and dry.
- If your student has medication needs during the school day, an adult is required to bring in the medication in the original container. Students may not transport medication themselves.
- If your student plans to ride home on a different bus, please send a note with your student. The note must be turned in at the front office for approval at the beginning of the day.
- Please make sure your student has money deposited in their lunch account. Free and reduced applications are available online or in our office. Breakfast is free for all students.
- Students are encouraged to bring their own reusable water bottle to school each day.
