Grade Level Experience:
School-wide Citizenship (including anti-bullying) programming
Classroom Exploration
7th grade students will have four exploratory classes which will give them exposure to some of the career clusters and career options within those clusters. The three classes are:
Business Exploratory: Business Management & Administration Cluster; Marketing Sales & Service Career Cluster
Gateway I: Science, Technology, Engineering & Math Career Cluster
Math: Finance Career Cluster
World Language: Liberal Arts Career Cluster
Students will do a reflection at the end of each exploratory class, and math, in which they will answer the following questions. Responses to these questions will be saved in their Xello storyboard.
*What career interests you in that career cluster?
*How does this career match your interests?
*What did you like about this class?
*What didn’t you like about this class?
Counselor/Conferencing Time
Counselors are available to their students on an as-needed basis. If a 7th grade student would like to work with their counselor on updating their ACP Plan or have a discussion about their future goals, they can make an appointment with their counselor.
WRAMS has two counselors working with 7th grade students:
Ms. Niedbalski : Students with Last Names A-K
Ms. Van De Hey : Students with Last Names L-Z
Co-Curriculars
WRAMS offers a variety of co-curricular activities that allow for student participation beyond the normal school day. These activities allow students additional opportunities to develop their talents in activities beyond the classroom. We encourage all of our students to become involved in the wide range of activities WRAMS has to offer.
Benefits of Co-Curricular Involvement:
Co-curricular activities provide opportunities for character development and valuable life lessons - teamwork, sportsmanship, self-discipline and hard work. These are qualities students need if they are to become responsible adults, productive citizens and skilled professionals.
Studies have indicated that students involved in co-curricular activities are more likely to have:
Higher GPAs
Higher college admission test scores
Better attendance
Lower dropout rates
Fewer discipline referrals
