Thank you DAT Club! You helped make the last day before break a little more fun with your spring jellybean guessing contest. Who's going home with the jar? We'll find out after lunch! @whufsdrams #RamResolve @smurrayLB
Reminder WHMS: the NYS math exams will take place Tuesday & Wednesday right after spring break. Algebra students will take a "mock" Regents & review class those days. Please be on time! See the picture for the bell schedule. @whufsdrams #RamResolve @smurrayLB
Our JVE team was competing with the "big boys" of island-wide HS Virtual Enterprise teams & holding their own. Their high-end, sustainable fashion isn't for everyone, but for the affluent, it's a great product! The energy in the WHHS gym was invigorating. @whufsdrams @smurrayLB
How do you make the periodic table fun? Turn an element into a superhero! Students in Mr. DeVivo's class are taking properties of elements and creating superheroes or supervillains based on the properties. Ductile metals allow for superstretch! @whufsdrams @smurrayLB #RamResolve
Attention WHMS parents! Connecting with early adolescents, especially around school, is not easy. The chart in this photo (from Phi Delta Kappan) offers some great ways to start conversations with your middle schooler. Let us know how it goes. @whufsdrams #RamResolve @smurrayLB
It's #RamPride time! Our winners this week exhibited many of the Habits of Mind and helped make our school a better place. Thank you and keep up the good work!

It's all about perspective! Students in Ms. Ferrante's Studio Art class created drawings showing their use of the technique of perspective to bring a third dimension to their work. They make the halls look beautiful as well! @whufsdrams #RamResolve @smurrayLB
Spanish is not a spectator sport in @CSpallino715 class. Students work together to practice the language and hone their speaking and listening skills. Great job all! Let's work on that Seal of Biliteracy for graduation. @whufsdrams #RamResolve @smurrayLB
WHMS had a special visitor last week who took some time to reflect (one of the Habits of Mind) after spending time in our halls talking to students and teachers. The WHMS office rocking chair is a great spot for reflection! @whufsdrams #RamResolve @smurrayLB
It was a banner week for #RamPride Awards last week. Students exhibited so many Habits of Mind, helping themselves & our school in the process. Congrats to all! @whufsdrams #RamResolve @smurrayLB
