Happy Friday, Sharks!

We are just about ready to get our dancing shoes dusted off, crank the stereo up, and rock out in our Star Wars themed dance. The PTO and the SCA have a great evening planned for those staying behind for the dance. As always, please remember the dance ends at 6 PM. There may be a little extra traffic tonight due to Hollymead’s Heritage Festival, which starts at 6:30 PM. It was great to have a regular week of school (minus Monday) with 4 days in a row with students! Second semester is now underway, so first semester and quarter two grades will be available shortly. We had a wonderful drama performance this week put on by our talented 7th and 8th graders. I posted some pictures to the Twitter Feed on the webpage so you can check out our Horatio, Elvis, Little M, Reality TV hosts, and all the others. Great, great evening last night. We also had the 5th grade parent program this week for all of our soon-to-be Sharks. Some our WSMS students got a field trip today. Our PTO hooked us up with a great donut day today. Thanks again! You all continue to dominate.

Coming up next week: 5 FULL days of school! Also, we have a 6th grade band concert from 7 – 8:30 PM on Wednesday night and All-District Band on Friday. Only one news item, so I’ll wrap it up here and lace up my dancing shoes. Have a great weekend, Sharks!

1. We are getting ready for a Lost and Found purge! The amount of lost and found is staggering and starting to get a bit ripe. Every year, we take unclaimed items to the Goodwill store, so if you have a child with a plethora of missing jackets, encourage them to stop by lost and found by Friday, Feb. 2nd. Thanks!
