Welcome!
To the Willie L. Brown Jr. Middle School At-Home Schooling Plan.
Hello WBMS Families,
I am so excited to welcome you to the 2020-2021 school year! It’s going to be a great year! Willie L. Brown Jr. Middle School (WBMS) is a rich and vibrant school community full of love, laughter, passionate educators, and wonderful families.
Staff is eager to welcome new and returning families back into our WBMS community. This school year will be unlike any other and will require new ways of thinking and structuring our school day. Learning for the fall semester will be starting with distance learning. No students or teachers will be physically attending school. Instead, all learning will be remote. We will provide the necessary resources to ensure that your child has a successful and engaging learning experience. I am proud to represent WBMS and serve as your principal.
Best,
Principal
Charleston Brown
