Students at WMS came together to help decorate the school hallways in honor of Veterans Day by creating beautiful paper poppies! These poppies now brighten the front hallway of the school, celebrating those who have served our country. Through this project, students learned more about the history and significance of the poppy and why it remains such an important symbol of remembrance.

After reading Wishtree by Katherine Applegate, Ms. Butera’s 4th grade students were inspired to create their very own Woodland Wishtree!

Students began by writing down their wishes, then headed out to the school courtyard to choose a tree where they could tie their wishes. What a wonderful way for our Wildcats to bring this story to life!
