Sending a huge shout-out to our IT Specialist, Cameron Bohn, on IT Professionals Day.
Thank you for keeping our computers and Chromebooks running smoothly. We appreciate all you do for the WMS staff and students.

Do you have the time, experience and desire to step in to help make educational decisions for a child with an Individualized Education Plan when the child's parent is not available or cannot be located? Each year hundreds of Missouri students need a caring adult to serve as an educational surrogate. Learn how you can help: /o/fzsd/page/education-surrogates
