WMS students took a united stand against bullying on Wednesday, October 25th.  During lunches, students in all three grade levels signed a banner, pledging to take a stand against bullying.  Prior to Unity Day, Mr. Campbell challenged each grade level to show their support for the cause by wearing orange.  The sixth grade class had the greatest participation of all three classes, flooding the lunchroom Wednesday with a sea of orange.  WMS applauds these amazing students for their kind Warrior spirit.
