WMS: On Wednesday, November 6 the middle school will be practicing a safety drill at approximately 1:30 PM. This drill will involve law enforcement and you may see students outside during the practice. In addition, our first responders may be in or near the school building. We want you to be aware so you are not alarmed.
People often ask if students learn any life skills while in school. I think this is a perfect example of our students doing some hands on learning that will benefit them in their future.
Please take a few minutes to read over some of the great things that have happened during our first 47 days of school.

Recently, BGSU’s Van Wright volunteered his time to speak with students at WHS and reinforce the importance of setting goals and showing up on success in life. He reminded students that the path to goal achievement is not always a straight line. You may have to zig then zag. Persistance and showing up for yourself and others is key! Thanks for #showingup for WHS and the Wapak community, Van!
