WMS NEWS FROM THE NEST
WHAT'S HAPPENING AT WINDSOR MIDDLE SCHOOL
DECEMBER EDITION
Dear Parents and Guardians
Good afternoon,
I hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving break and was able to enjoy some time with family and friends. As we dive back into school it's hard to believe that we are approaching the final stages of first semester. Please continue to encourage your students to be in attendance and finish strong by completing all their assignments and studying for those summatives!
There is a link below for our Finals/Half-Day Schedule, which will take place at the end of the month. 2024-25 Finals/Half-Day Schedule.docx
We also want to mention the importance and impact of being at school each day. Student attendance is important because students are more likely to succeed in academics when they attend school consistently. Students gain background knowledge from discussions while learning in school. Attending school also provides time for social interaction with peers. WMS and the state of Missouri require that our students attend school more than 90% of the time. Please make every effort to come to school.
AMI DAY - (Alternate Method of Instruction) What does this mean for our WMS students? If or when the Windsor C-1 School district has to be out of school for any unforeseen circumstances (snow, ice, flood, water main break, etc.) the Windsor C-1 School District may announce that school will not be in session today, we will be using an AMI DAY. That means that all of our teacher instruction and class work, for that day, will be in your students google classroom. Each teacher will be available to answer emails from 9:00-11:00 am.
Please remember;
HALF-DAY - December 19th & December 20th (Release 11:25 am)
No School - December 23rd - January 6th (Holiday Break)
1st Day of 2nd Semester - January 7th
IN CLOSING
Please remember that at any time, if you have questions or need some information, please do not hesitate to call the WMS office at 636-464-4417
Thank you and have a great day!!!
GO OWLS!!!

WMS COUNSELORS CORNER
Our students have been working hard to finish 1st semester strong. In the coming weeks, the students will be taking our district NWEA Assessment which assesses their skills in Math, Reading, and Language. Please remind your student that they can only benefit from a great effort and attitude towards these assessments and please remember to charge their Chromebook. As always, continue to monitor and discuss their grades and friendships. From the counseling office, Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!

Inclement Weather
I know we have had mild weather as of late but it looks and feels like that is changing! Hopefully, no inclement weather will impact our schedule but it is always better to be prepared. Remember if school is not in session, we will be having an "AMI Day".
Keep in mind that you will be notified via phone by our school communication system and you can always follow us on Twitter@WMSowls. We also let the local media stations know any time school is canceled.
