Good afternoon, we just wanted to remind everyone that the frozen chicken tenders from the fundraiser will need to be picked up tomorrow between 2-5pm in front of the MS gym. Please be prepared to let us know of the name of the student that you purchased from. We appreciate the help of everyone that helped make this fundraiser a success!
September is Attendance Awareness Month. We are so thankful to you all for making attendance a priority for our students! Below is the CCBOE 5 Impacts of Attendance Document.
Dear Guardians,
Last Friday, September 15th, ALL Students received a Christmas Assistance Notification letter and form to return by September 21 (Thursday). Please read the qualification guidelines.
The due dates and deadlines are strictly adhered to with no exceptions. If your child did not bring a form home and you would like more information, email Mrs. Campbell at mcampbell@ccboe.org
You may return paper forms to school or by email to Mrs. Campbell. Deadline for this form is Thursday, September 21st at 3pm.
Congratulation to Mrs. Nunnelley for Winning the Exceptional Service Award! We are so blessed to have Mrs. Nunnelley serve our faculty and students at WPMS! We love you Mrs. Nunnelley!
Following today's National Weather Service briefing, Dr. Barnette has decided to have a remote learning day on Friday, March 3, 2023. Cullman County will be under a rare high wind warning beginning tomorrow. We are expecting sustained winds 30-40 MPH with gusts 50-60 MPH, well above safe operating conditions for school buses. The NWS says to expect - and be prepared - for downed trees and power outages. Students will be provided assignments to complete tomorrow.
Due to the risk of severe weather, Cullman County Schools will be remote again tomorrow. (Thursday 2/16/23). There is a strong possibility for tornadoes and I believe that parents should be able to make the decision to carry their children to a storm shelter as needed. If storms are not in our area students should use this time to catch up on any school work or spend time practicing their reading. Thank you and please stay safe. - Shane Barnette

We just received a call from Swamp John's that their truck is broken down and they cannot make it here today to WPM, so Swamp John's for tonight is cancelled and will be rescheduled at a later date. We will let everyone know of the new date when we find out. We apologize for the inconvenience and hope you understand.
All Cullman County school campuses will dismiss at 12pm on WEDNESDAY 4/6/22 due to the threat of severe weather.
Please share this post to help us get the word out. We're looking for talented employees that want to shape the future, make a difference, and be a hero.
All Cullman County School Campuses will dismiss at 1pm Thursday 2/17/22 in advance of the expected severe weather.
With Cullman County Schools on a remote learning schedule over the next two days, students will be able to access their current assignments for this week through their chromebook via Google Classroom. Students that needed paper copies were given those today at school. If we can help in any way, let us know. We hope and pray that everyone can stay well and we hope to see our students back with us for face-to-face instruction on Monday!
Cullman County Schools will transition to remote learning Thursday 1/20 and Friday 1/21. At this time, we plan to return to in-classroom instruction on Monday, 1/24.
Statement from Dr. Barnette, Cullman County School Superintendent
"I had hoped the numbers would get better this week, but unfortunately, we have a lot of students and staff out today. We've been strategic, shifting staff from other schools and the Central Office to cover absences with a goal of sustaining in-person learning, but we have reached a point that we need to transition to remote learning. With that in mind, along with the potential for winter weather Thursday and Friday, all Cullman County Schools will be operating remotely the rest of the week. Your child will be sent home with work for the next two days. Weather permitting, faculty and staff who are healthy will be on campus and able to assist your child digitally. Please know that I firmly believe that there is no equivalent substitute for in-person learning. I want our children in the classroom. I hope we will see improvement by next week."

Cullman County Schools will operate remotely on Friday 1/14/22. The decision to hold classes remotely is due primarily to the number of teachers and staff who are sick. After-school events will be allowed to continue because this dismissal is due to not having enough teachers and staff to operate during the school day.
Teachers and staff who are not sick will still report to work tomorrow.
Cullman County Schools will have a remote learning day Friday 1/7 due to the weather. Teachers will provide students with either a digital or paper assignment to be completed. Everyone stay safe.
After reviewing the latest National Weather Service update, Cullman County Schools will continue with the 2-hour delay today, Thursday 1/6. Campuses will be open and buses will run 2 hours behind their normal schedule.
Cullman County Schools will operate on a two-hour delay on Thursday, January 6, 2022. Buses will run two hours late. Employees, please report two hours later than your normally scheduled time.
