Thanks to folks who have already donated to our Back to School Supply Drive. The PTO asks staff each year what is needed for supplies to help students. Each year, it's the same 3 things! So, we are sponsoring a Back to School Supply Drive focusing on Pencils, Kleenex, and Ear Buds (with jacks). Please consider donating in any of the following ways:

1. Donate online. All donations received between Sept 10 and Sept 27 will be used to purchase pencils, kleenex and ear buds. WMS Online Donation Link

2. Purchase items and drop off in the main office.

3. Order via Amazon or any other platform and have them shipped directly to the school! Please see our Amazon Wish List for ideas (these are only a few ideas - any pencils, ear buds with jacks, or facial tissue is welcome). Delivery address for the school is:

This assessment is used to determine your students’ growth in Reading and Math and is part of a balanced assessment system used in South Washington County Schools. Here are some important ways we use MAP data:

• To inform instruction during the current school year
• To identify students to receive Advanced Learner Services,
• To identify or exit students from reading and/or math intervention supports, and
• To place students in the appropriate 6th grade math courses

If you would like to opt your student out of this test, parents/guardians must fill out this form by 9/6/2024 and submit it to the school.
