Spring has sprung! We are now in our last quarter of the 2009-2010 school year! During these final weeks there will be many awards programs and celebrations of student success. With that in mind, it is a great time to remind our students that while school is ALMOST over, it is currently still in session! We have begun to see more student dress code violations and also horse-playing. Please help us by reminding your students about proper school attire and respecting all school rules.
Recently, we sent home a School Uniform Questionnaire to the parents of current 6th and 7th grade students. Although we received less than 30% back, most responders (69%) answered favorably about uniforms at Williams Middle School. An updated School Uniform Policy will be sent home and posted online later this month and parents will have a final opportunity to receive vouchers to purchase uniforms.
We need parent volunteers for our next Duty Free Lunch for teachers. It is scheduled for Thursday, April 8th. You may come from 11:45 to 12:30 or from 12:30 to 1:15. Of course you may also stay the entire period if you wish! Please call the office at 428-7330 to volunteer and we thank you for your support!
