8th grade families-- please

We will also be having a t-shirt design contest for the class of 2024. More information will be shared soon, as this is being organized by the WMS PTO with the support of the WHS booster club.
There have been other ideas that have been shared and discussed, such as a Class of 2024 tailgate, when we are allowed to gather again. Thank you to those that have reached out with suggestions. And thank you to our WMS PTO for your adaptability and hard work.
