Our 6th-graders had an excellent learning opportunity to spend time at Hollecker Lake. Thanks to all the local organizations that made this field trip possible. They all ver grateful to receive their own fishing rod to take home. Look out, fish! #GoDemons

The 7th-graders enjoyed their field trip to Fort Union and Fort Buford! It was a beautiful day for adventures.

Last Tuesday, our eighth graders went on a field trip! They spent time at the Frontier Museum, learning from experts at Makoskia, and playing folf. There was lots of learning and fun had by all.

A friendly reminder any time from Kallie, our therapy dog!

Mrs. Newton's 7th grade STEAM class worked hard on planning and developing and creating their own putt putt golf holes. I think they had as much fun playing them as creating them. I will say they seemed to be as challenging as a typical putt putt golf holes can be for many of us. #GoDemons #STEAM

Thanks to our TIP students for showing the love to our staff this past week for Teacher Appreciation Week! We love their sense of humor and creativity. Thank you to Mrs. Nissley for facilitating! #GoDemons

Our middle schoolers keep us laughing and smiling! #GoDemons

Just a little sunshine from our PreK friends!

Last Monday, we had our last band and choir concert of the year! It was wonderful to hear the amazing growth students made! During the concert, Mr. Burkhart and Ms. Sickler celebrated special student achievements. Thank you to Mr. Burkhart and Ms. Sickler. #GoDemons!

Did you know 8th-graders who have an A in Art get a special place on the Art Room wall to share their passion for Art?

Some of our students' art is on display from Mrs. Lynn's Art class.

During the week of April 28th, WMS Health/P.E. students had the opportunity to reflect on the impacts of alcohol use and hear firsthand how it can negatively impact someone's life. The students were an appreciative audience and learned from the perspective of individuals who have struggled with alcohol and are now helping others!
