Indoor Recess -- Donations Needed
As the weather changes and becomes colder and wetter, recess may be held indoors. We are accepting donations of new or gently used board games, card games, art supplies, etc. for students to play with during indoor recess. All donations can be dropped off in the main office. Thank you, in advance, for your help!!
Electronic Devices
In our Blended Learning environment, WRJH encourages the use of devices for certain classroom activities. Classroom teachers will let students know when the time is appropriate to use devices. Please remind students that there are to be no electronic devices in hallways, common areas and/or classrooms unless otherwise directed by a member of the staff.
