WMS students took a united stand against bullying on Wednesday, October 25th.  During lunches, students in all three grade levels signed a banner, pledging to take a stand against bullying.  Prior to Unity Day, Mr. Campbell challenged each grade level to show their support for the cause by wearing orange.  The sixth grade class had the greatest participation of all three classes, flooding the lunchroom Wednesday with a sea of orange.  WMS applauds these amazing students for their kind Warrior spirit.

In support of National Unity Day and National Bullying Prevention Month, the Braves TV crew painted rocks and wrote kind messages on them.  They hid the rocks throughout the school on October 25.  Students that find a rock can give it to someone to brighten their day, keep it, or hide it for someone else to find.  Or they can return it to the LMC for a candy prize.  At WHS, we believe KINDNESS ROCKS!
