Notes from the Principal:

Welcome to a new school year at Watkins Middle School.  I want to encourage all of our parents to get connected with at least one of the ways we communicate with our parents.  You can find information on our school webpage.  On our webpage, you can sign up for our daily announcements.  You can also find us on Facebook @GoWarriorsWMS.  We have also recently created a Remind account for announcements that you can join by following this link ( https://www.remind.com/join/gowms2017 ) .  We hope you will choose at least one of these ways to stay connected with us and what is going on this school year at WMS.

Study Tip
Preparing for Success

One way to help students retain information is for them to rewrite their own notes.  Have students take the time to rewrite their notes to help clarify the knowledge and lock it in their minds for future use.
