Good afternoon from WCMS! We are seeing quite a few cases of the flu this week and other illnesses. Just a few reminders: 1. Please do not send your student to school if they are vomiting, have diarrhea, or a fever above 100. 2. Students need to be symptom free for 24 hours before returning to school. 3. Students should not be drinking or eating after each other. 4. Please encourage your student to be diligent in good hygiene, specifically washing their hands. If your student has flu like symptoms, please keep them home and monitor them. We can all work together to stop the spread of these germs!

Hat Day on Tuesday! Bring an item for the food/hygiene drive and wear your favorite hat all day!

Update on Little Caesar's Fundraiser!! **Little Caesar's fundraiser money must be turned in by February 8th. **You may order online but it will be delivered to the school and the student/parent will be responsible to deliver to you. We opted not to do digital ship to home due to it being an extra shipping charge of 10.00 to ship the order and we didn't feel anyone would want to pay that much. **We all love Pizza so order away and support WCMS!! **Please make sure to let your gluten free folks know that we have a gluten free option! **If you have any questions, please call WCMS at 304-275-3977.
