April 7, 2022 04/07/2022 Hello Tiger Shark Families, Report cards will be available on Synergy on Friday, April 8th @ 5:00 pm. We hope everyone has a restful Spring Break. We look forward to seeing everyone on Tuesday, April 19, recharged and ready to finish out the school year strong. We are pleased to share that WLMS distributed COVID-19 test kits during 7th period to all students to bring home with them today (4/7/22). We encourage the use of at-home tests prior to returning from Spring Break. Reminder that all students are to remain home if they are experiencing symptom(s) associated with any communicable disease, including COVID-19. Details on daily health checks are available online. If your child is exhibiting any COVID-19 symptoms, please use your test kit as an additional mitigation effort to keep our schools and offices healthy, and/or access one of many available public testing sites in your area. Please continue to engage in healthy practices during the break. Thank you for your partnership in keeping the Wilde Lake community healthy and well!
