Reminder From the Office
School Opening Time / Messages
|
|
Each school day, the doors open for students at 7:00 AM. Our staff is noticing students being dropped off before 7:00 AM and waiting outside the front doors. There is no school supervision then and students will not be able to enter before school opens. Brrr - it's getting cold - and we do not want to see students waiting outside in the dark New England morning weather. Thank you!
Also, we ask that you do not communicate reminders and plans (non-emergency information) to your child through the office staff. We just don't have the manpower to ensure your messages will reach their targets. Make a clear plan ahead of time, or you can send your child an email reminder. Thank you for your support!

Gift Your Child
The PTO has now raised over 70% of our $15,000 fundraising goal for this year. Visit the WMS PTO on Facebook to see some of last year’s grants in action around school. Remember, this year the PTO will not be asking you to pay dues or to sell gift wrap or cookie dough – we instead ask that you Gift Your Child. 100% of your donation is tax deductible and eligible for matching gift donations, and every dollar directly supports the PTO’s many programs at WMS. Donate today after registering at MySchoolAnywhere (the new online directory) or at http://waylandpto.org/middle-school-pto/donations-and-purchases/. You can also mail a check (made out to “Wayland PTO”) to Wayland Middle School PTO, 201 Main Street, Wayland, MA 01778. The suggested donation is $100 per middle school student.
