Our school will be piloting the new SmartPass program for students to access as digital hallway passes to and from various locations in the building. This platform will help to increase student accountability in reducing the amount of missed instructional time, as well as, simplifying the entire hall pass process, without compromising safety or flexibility. More info to come!

WJMS Families, it is incredibly important that students are coming to school each day with their Chromebooks and that the Chromebook is fully charged. When students do not have their resources, it puts the student behind in daily assignments which have to be completed at a later time. Please help us by reminding your student to have their supplies and be best prepared for the day! 

As a reminder, students should not bring in any outside food from restaurants.  This will help with concerns about food safety, potential disruptions in the classroom, managing food allergies among students, and maintaining the cleanliness of the school environment. Thank you for your help!

Families, please remember that 1st period instruction begins promptly at 8:45 AM each day. To ensure students are in class and ready to learn on time, they need to be in the building no later than 8:40 AM. This allows them time to get to their classrooms and prepare for the day ahead.

Thank you for your help in supporting a smooth start to the school day!

 The student dress code policy at WJMS is based on the Jackson County School System Code of Conduct document issued to all students. Click here to revisit this document. We strive to make each day successful and encourage our students to be their best. 

Students, please remember, 

1. No hats, caps, head coverings (to include hoodies), bandanas, or stocking caps inside the building.

2. Clothing should not interfere with learning.

3. Clothing should not contain the following: gang symbols, racial or sexual connotations, drugs, alcohol, tobacco, double meanings, inappropriate slogans, profanity or obscene language.

4. Any clothing or accessories that have spikes or bullets.

5. No blankets worn around the body.
