Yesterday, our WMS Jazz Band and Singsations had a fantastic day showcasing their talents! They kicked things off with a performance at the Caterpillar Welcome Center, then brought joy and music to the residents of the East Peoria Villas of Hollybrook. So proud of these students for representing our school and sharing the gift of music! Go Panthers!

Good Afternoon! This is a reminder that we are working on a project for our staff for the upcoming staff appreciation week - May 5-9. We would love to have a positive note about any staff member (teacher, aide, cafeteria worker, bus driver, custodial, etc.) at LGS and WMS. If you could take a minute to submit a positive message or story using this form, that would be great. You can submit more than one. https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSeubCqhFWvmxqGFoqMAeSgGC4hYc2Z5O3kmkV-3CtG82ZfhBQ/viewform?usp=sharing Thanks for your help!

Good Morning! This is a reminder to complete the parent 5 Essentials Survey by visiting https://survey.5-essentials.org/Illinois/. We do need 20% of parents to complete it in order to get a parent report from the state. We have met that threshold at LGS (30%), but we are currently at 19% for WMS. Once completed, you can send the attached form to school with your child to be entered into a drawing for a gift card. All surveys must be completed by March 28. More information can be found in the attached letter. We greatly appreciate your input!
