Good Evening Falcon Families! We hope you join us this Thursday, March 25th for Spring Parent-Teacher Conferences. Elementary conferences will be at teachers' classrooms and middle school conferences will be in the gymnasium. Conferences are from 5-7 p.m. and we hope to see you there! #JoiningTogetherForSuccess
Due to inclement weather, today and tomorrow's Falcon Flyers/Boys Girls Club are CANCELED. All students will be sent home after school today via their regular transportation method. Further, middle school volleyball practices will be shortened so that early practice is 4-5 p.m. and late practice will be 5-6:30 p.m. Drive safely and have a good spring break everyone!
Attention families with remote learners:
Tomorrow is our last open day to have students come in to take their quarterly benchmark assessments. Mr. Wollman and Mrs. White will be taking students from 9:00-3:00 on March 9th to complete their assessments. It will take your child approximately 1 hour to complete this. It is crucial that all remote students take periodic assessments so that we can adequately gauge student growth. Last week we only had 5 of the 70 students come in for their assessments. Please help us meet our goal of having 90% of our remote students take their benchmark assessments. If you are unable to come to school tomorrow for this assessment, please contact Mr. Wollman at awollman@wusd2.org to make other arrangements.
Alright, Falcons! We have one week left of school before Spring Break! Let's finish the quarter strong by putting forth our best efforts, excelling academically, and showing our Falcon Pride! This week is Spirit Week!
Monday--Crazy Hat Day; Tuesday--Decade Day; Wednesday--Pajama Day; Thursday--Extreme Spirit Day. Let's have some fun while we learn!

Student should submit their artwork and a signed permission slip to WUSD Art Teacher, Ms. Cargill. Permission slips are in the WEMS front office.

A reminder from the tech department. Please do not attempt repairs to your child's Chromebook. Glue will not fix broken keys. It only causes more damage for an otherwise simple repair. Also, several students have asked for replacement chargers. We do not have spares. If your child lost it, you (or they) are responsible for replacing it. All Chromebooks should be returned in the same condition they were issued. We will start Chromebook collection as soon as benchmarks are done in May. Replacement chargers are posted on our website. https://www.wusd2.org/page/technology
Happy Friday Families! Just a friendly reminder there is no school Monday, Feb. 15 for the Presidents' Day holiday. Enjoy your long weekend!
FYI COVID-19 testing tomorrow Friday, Feb. 12 9am-1pm at WEMS parking lot. Swab and saliva-based testing available. See flyer for details. https://5il.co/pkbr
