RedHawk Check is coming to WMS: Positive Interactions with Positive Results!
RedHawk Check is a system for positively connecting with students need additional support with connecting to Wredling Middle School or meeting expected school-wide and classroom behaviors. At Wredling, we focus on Being Respectful, Being Responsible, and Being Positive. Students in RedHawk Check will have more opportunities to interact positively with adults around our expectations and to ensure that they are set up for success each day.
Students will be identified to be in this intervention based on the number of office referrals they get, a behavior rating scale, and/or teacher recommendation. We will provide kids with honest and accurate, yet positive feedback on their behavior. During each class period, they are awarded points based on those three target areas. If they meet their goal and experience success, they receive “RedHawk Bucks” that can be used for positive rewards.
Students who show growth and improvement may be on RedHawk Check for only 4-6 weeks, while others may stay on longer based on their need to learn and grow. Some may even choose to stay on RedHawk because they like the positive interaction with adults!
If your child is chosen to be on RedHawk Check, they will be given more opportunities for changing their behaviors through positive reinforcement. Below is the scoring grid on which students get points, along with a rubric that describes how we look at each point.
Thank You!
We exceeded our goal of $20,000 this year which is going to give our PTO the opportunity to extend the great work they do on behalf of our students. It is your support, financially. with school work, and with behavior, that really makes the difference.
Thank you and enjoy your weekend!

WMS Halloween Guidelines
This year at WMS we are going to allow costumes on Halloween (Wednesday, October 31). Here are my guidelines:
- If you are going to wear a costume, I also expect that you have come to school ready to learn on Halloween.
- All costuming must happen at home. That includes any hair of make-up.
- The costume must be school appropriate.
- There are no masks allowed.
- There can be nothing that you carry around that is extra. (ie. weapons, scythes, clubs, dolls, etc.)
- Teachers are expected to teach that day, though they may have Halloween themed lessons.
- There will be no Halloween parties. Or candy. Or other treats. Because you will get enough junk at night if you trick or treat.
- After Halloween, you can only bring a couple of pieces of candy per day. If you bring more, I will get it and eat it. And I don't need any more candy. And throw away your wrappers in the garbage, please.
The front office will be dressing in a Harry Potter theme. Feel free to join us!
