Wednesday Morning All Students Go Directly to Bacon-Music Concert for Students

On Wednesday, December 10, all WJ students will be treated to a whole school concert at Bacon Academy. Buses will drop off WJ students directly at Bacon Academy. After the concert, all students will be transported back to WJ on school buses. If you drive your child to school, please follow the directions below to drop your child off at Bacon Academy. Thank you.

From the main entrance, WJ parents should turn right (which is the direction all traffic goes).
WJ Parents may enter the first lot on the left (now the faculty lot).
WJ Parents should drop off near the auditorium doors and students can use the crosswalk, then enter the building.
Please do not drive in the bus lanes.

Pajama Day is December 12th!

Only appropriate PJs, please. No slippers or blankets!

Ski Club Wait List Forming!

Although the 50 spots have been filled, due to the overwhelming interest in Ski Club we are continuing to accept permission forms and registration fees for a wait list (in hoping that we get enough registrations for a second bus). If there is not enough interest for a second bus all registration fees will be returned to the students on the wait list. Both permission forms and registration fees must be submitted in order to be placed on the wait list.

Help Luna the Therapy Dog

Please consider helping Luna, the Colchester Fire & EMS therapy dog that we have had visit our students on numerous occasions, was diagnosed with cancer and is going through treatments. They have created a GoFundMe account to help pay for her medical bills.

PTO Sponsored Holiday Luncheon – December 19

It’s that magical time of year when we show our amazing WJJMS staff how much we appreciate them—mostly by showering them with food. We need your help to make it delicious, festive, and full of cheer! Please sign up to make or donate a dish, dessert, or drink. Homemade, store-bought, or “I tried my best”… we welcome it all.

PJs & Slipper Socks Drive

Please help collect NEW PJs and slipper socks for local Lion Charities in need. Please turn in your donations to WJJMS by December 19th!
