Recently, some of Mrs. Ellett's 8th grade art students entered the Popcorn Pep Club Contest, which is sponsored by the Popcorn Board.

The Popcorn Board is a non-profit check-off organization funded by U.S. popcorn processors to raise awareness of popcorn as a versatile, whole-grain snack.  The Popcorn Board is a national commodity promotion and research program. It was formed in April 1998 as an Act of Congress at the request of the popcorn processing industry.

Our students received an honorable mention

and a $500 award for their efforts!

Way to go students, we are proud of you and your efforts!!!

As part of their entry, they created a video of their project. Click on this link to view the video.

WMS Play Presentation - February 14, 15, 16

Who Shot the Sheriff?

Many Wayne Middle School students have been "extra" busy lately.  They have dedicated time before and after school - practicing, rehearsing, preparing for, and looking forward to their play production of "Who Shot the Sheriff?"  Under the direction and encouragement of Andrea Peterson and Toni Lamb, these energetic middle school kids have been memorizing lines and honing their acting skills.

Wayne Middle School offers various College & Career Awareness (CCA) classes.  Several 7th graders were enrolled in Mrs. Williams' Family and Consumer Science unit.  As part of the curriculum, they were given the choice to create either a rice bag or a decorative pillow.

Students decided on their idea, collected their material and items, measured, cut, filled, and sewed their own project.  Mrs. Williams provided guidance and encouragement along the way.
