The Black History Month 2022 theme, “Black Health and Wellness,” explores "the legacy of not only Black scholars and medical practitioners in Western medicine, but also other ways of knowing (e.g., birth workers, doulas, midwives, naturopaths, herbalists, etc.) throughout the African Diaspora. The 2022 theme considers activities, rituals and initiatives that Black communities have done to be well." - from History.com

WLMS Students celebrated Black History Month by honoring, investigating, researching and studying important figures in Black History as well as completing a PBL through RELA called "Interactive Museum of Influential African Americans"!

As your children receive their middle school immunizations, please remember to bring or send a copy of their updated immunization record to Mrs. Metcalf (nurse) at the WLMS clinic. Many of your children have probably already received these immunizations. For those who still need their updated vaccines, please make these appointments very soon. According to Texas state law, without proof of the required vaccines, your child(ren) will not be able to attend school and may be withdrawn.

This is especially important for current 6th grade students who are entering 7th grade. Please call Mrs. Metcalf (nurse) at 281-641-5805 if you have any questions. Her email address is Mallory.Metcalf@humbleisd.net

February was BUSY!

PTO was able to award grants to the RELA, Math and Science departments as well as the Technology Student Association in February. We are glad to be able to support the staff/students throughout the year. Next department, History!

PTO and Student Council hosted a spirit filled Spirit Color Challenge on Tuesday, 02/22/22. 8th grade showed out and were able to secure a cool win! They were rewarded with ice pops during lunch the following week.

Through generous donations we also had a Taco Tuesday for the staff during our Spirit Day.

Thank you for coming out to our Spirit Night at Texas Roadhouse. We are excited to announce that Mr. Barnes was the teacher that won the gift certificate dinner for two.
