Assistant Principal Message
Hello WMS Families,
I want to thank you all for the warm welcomes I have received. I have had the pleasure of meeting many students and their families. As one of the newest Assistant Principals to WMS, it has been my pleasure and honor to be a part of such an amazing staff and assist in all of the wonderful things happening at WMS.
Having the opportunity to be a part of the community, as a parent, and now one of your Assistant Principals, has increased my appreciation for the students, parents, and staff in the community. The students and staff are really living up to E.L.I.T.E standards. We are all off to a great start, and I'm excited to see what the rest of the year holds.
I would like to wish everyone a wonderful school year. Please don't hesitate in contacting me if you are in need of my assistance.
Respectfully,
Stephanie Argueta
6th grade
Assistant Principal
