1st graders were having so much fun learning about shapes today!
Thank you to Darlene Henderson and Jennifer Sakata for coming to teach our 3rd graders some valuable lessons last week!
Thank you to everyone who donated to the WMS Toy Drive. The Kindness Squad collected 143 toys this week!
The D52 Board of Education recently adopted the 2024 Levy which will lower the district's tax rate by an estimated 10 to 12 cents. This will most likely keep District 52's rate as the lowest one compared to all K-8 school districts in Tazewell County.
Please consider donating a toy to the WMS Toy Drive. The Kindness Squad will be accepting toys every day this week.
The WMS Toy Drive starts on Monday! The Kindness Squad will be accepting toys every day next week. Please consider donating a toy.
Good Afternoon!
So far, with the 1:1 match from the National Inventors Hall of Fame, we will be able to sponsor 3 D52 students for STEM Camp next summer. If you are looking for a great organization to donate to on this Giving Tuesday, Camp Invention is a great one. All donations made to our page will go to sponsor D52 students in attending the camp, and 100% of all donations today will be matched!
Thanks for your support of our students.

Good Morning!
This is a reminder today is Giving Tuesday, and we have a unique opportunity for you to help sponsor D52 students in attending our Camp Invention STEM camp next summer. Last year, we had 90 students attend our first annual STEM camp at District 52. Camp Invention is a weeklong STEM program that introduces our K-6 students to the joy of hands-on invention and helps them develop an innovative mindset with confidence, creativity, and collaboration skills. Camp Invention is $275 per student, and last year, the Camp Invention organization provided two sponsorships for D52 students to attend. This year, we are hoping to provide at least five sponsorships to students in need. This year, to celebrate 35 years of Camp Invention, the National Inventors Hall of Fame will match every local dollar given nationwide up to a total of $35,000. Every donation received on Tuesday, December 3, 2024, will be matched 1:1 until national matching funds are expended. If you are interested in donating to help provide a scholarship to the STEM camp for a D52 student, you can do so by visiting the CrowdFunding link below. Thank you for your continuous support of our students. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact our Camp Invention director, Lynn Isbell (d52lisbe@d52schools.com).

Mark your calendars for the WMS Holiday Concert!
Our 2nd graders loved learning about Greek Civilizations!
Balloons over Broadway! 1st graders learned all about the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade and the history of the balloons this week. They had their own parade through the building and outside today!
2nd and 3rd graders at LGS had a great time collaborating during their 2nd grade Greek Civilization and 3rd grade Roman Civilization ELA units.
