Re: WMS May 2018 Board Report
The following are the key happenings at Woodland Middle School:
BRANDING
All staff walked through WMS to analyze the message that our school sends to patrons. Each teacher played a role such as
FORECASTING/MASTER SCHEDULE
- All students should be forecasted for next year’s electives by now. Some of our new offerings will be Drama, Advanced Robotics, Medical Careers, Project Based Learning, Forensics, and Weights.
- Next year, our doors to the commons will open at
8:00am. Students will be able to enter the hallways and go to lockers at8:30am which is 15 minutes later than currently. Classes will begin at the same time as this year at8:45am. This should help us provide additional supervision and limit negative behaviors in the morning.
TRACK AND FIELD
- The WMS track team won the district championships for both boys and girls. This is quite an accomplishment. Our girls’ team defeated the next closest team by 47.5 points. Our boys’ team won by 10 points.
STATE ASSESSMENTS
- We have completed our state ELA assessments and begun our math testing. These state assessments will assist us as we forecast and place students in classes next year in our new
seven period schedule. Students that meet and/or exceed benchmarks (grade level expectations) earn the opportunity to take additional electives next school year.
