THE WFS SCHOOL STORE IS BACK!

Special thanks to our staff and students in Ms. Criscuolo's classroom and Ms. Martin's classroom! The WFS School Store was developed and is run by this dedicated group of individuals. Students select items to sell, determine prices, create flyers and commercials, AND manage the shop during select student lunches. We are SUPER proud of all the work they do!


To start the year, the school store is open during select student lunches on a rotating schedule. Be on the lookout for information being sent home so your child is ready to purchase some goodies!
