Congratulations to Wallce Middle School Washington Way nominees Terry McCroskey, Stacy Wilson, Kelli Whited, Miranda Eck (not pictured)

Please share this wonderful opportunity. @WashCoSuper

In honor of Teacher Appreciation Week, the WMS Beta Club members “adopted” a faculty member. Students brought a gift based on different themes each day for their secret pal. To show their gratitude, teachers provided breakfast for the students Friday morning as well as a gift for them. This is always an end-of-year event that brings fun for everyone involved, while affording teachers and students the opportunity to get to know one another a little better.

Yearbook distribution day May 20th!

Families, We often take for granted the time that teachers spend with our children. However, it is in those moments that lifelong lessons are learned that leave a legacy. Please reach out to your child’s teachers to thank them for the legacy they are helping you build through empowering our most valuable resource; our children. Thank you, Dr. Perrigan

Tonight, the Washington County School Board recognized both students and staff for their excellence. From Fine Arts, to Global Bi-Liiteracy Excellence, to the first ever Washington Way Award recognizing outstanding support staff. #WashingtonWay @WashCoSuper #WCPSBest

On Tuesday, April 30, the WMS Student Ambassadors welcomed members of the Washington County Sheriff's Department and Virginia State Police for our annual Law Enforcement Appreciation Breakfast. Superintendent Dr. Perrigan and school board members Ms. Nichols and Mr. Wilson also joined us. We would like to express our gratitude for our local law enforcement for all they do for our community.

Student Ambassadors at WMS enjoyed their end of the year leadership lunch with their faculty sponsor Ms Bradshaw and Mr Worley before heading to their team building workshop. It has been an absolute pleasure having these students serve in several different capacities at Wallace. And while we are sad to see our five 8th graders leave for high school, we are excited to invite new students to apply for next school year.

On Wednesday, April 24, the WMS 6th and 8th grade bands along with the JSB Jazz band visited HPES and VIES. The bands performed for the elementary students to encourage them to join band when they enter middle school this fall. Students were treated to a variety of songs including "Anyway You Want It", "Firework" and "The Lion Sleeps Tonight".

Where would WCPS be without the amazing professionals who work tirelessly behind the scenes each day? They are the faces of our schools, the voices on the phones, and the supporters of our entire staff. We appreciate all that our administrative professionals do to keep our schools running! #WashingtonWay. @WashCoSuper

There aren't enough words to express our gratitude to the Transportation Department and each of the school bus drivers who make it their mission to safely transport the students of WCPS! Thank you for your dedicated service! #WashingtonWay @WashCoSuper

WMS loves our secretaries: Ms. Childress, Ms. Whited, Ms. Partin, and Ms. Wilson. Thank you for all you do for Wallace!
