Our HS Music Technology class is working out its new MacBooks with a collaboration with MS chorus. 2 MS students wrote an original song that the HS students are recording, editing, and producing. Talk about an authentic task! @whufsdrams #RamResolve @smurrayLB
Good morning,
Just a friendly reminder that today's middle school track meet will begin at 5:00 pm at Berner Middle School. The address is 50 Carman Mill Rd, Massapequa, NY 11758
Spectators are allowed to attend the track meet and there is no limit to the number of spectators that can attend the track meet.
Also, I just received this from their school district. At today's MS Winter Track Meet, their booster club will be selling food and drinks at the concession stand.
Wishing you and your family a very happy, peaceful, and gratitude-filled Thanksgiving Day. We'll see everyone back in school on Monday, November 29th. We thank you for sharing your children with us and entrusting their education to our school! @whufsdrams #RamResolve @smurrayLB
We are THANKFUL that cooking is back in our FACS room this year! Ms. G & her JVE class engaged in a baking/team-building activity today. The smell of fresh-baked cookies in the hall left us all in the holiday spirit. @whufsdrams @smurrayLB #RamResolve

Last week's mental health push-in lessons led to this "Wall of Gratitude" as students enter WHMS. They listed 3 people or things they are grateful for as a way to support positive mental health. We have some great moms out there! @whufsdrams @smurrayLB #RamResolve
Here are 30 ways to practice gratitude over the next 30 days. As Kristin Armstrong said, "When we focus on our gratitude, the tide of disappointment goes out & the tide of love rushes in." We are grateful to be able to work with your & your children daily. @whufsdrams @smurrayLB
These anchor charts were spied in Ms. Rogan's classroom in support of our new writers workshop approach at WHMS. They "anchor" students to lessons, expectations, or ideas to foster independence as writers. Make the room look great! @whusdrams #RamResolve @smurrayLB
Ms. Parker & Walker holding writing conferences with students as they progress through the writing process in our memoir unit of study. These 1:1 sessions provide feedback to improve the writer in real time & make the writing better before it's published. @whufsdrams @smurrayLB
Mike is interviewing for the CFO position in the JVE company, Prism. Good luck Mike! You're definitely dressed for success and I know your first few answers were spot on! Thanks to our HS VE students for being the interview panel. @whufsdrams #RamResolve @smurrayLB
Our Jr. Virtual Enterprise class joined the HS VE program for an Island-wide trade show today. Dressed in business attire, they decided on companies to invest in. Some even interviewed for exec positions in the company. It was a great afternoon! @whufsdrams #RamResolve @smurrayLB
Our psychologist & social worker visited every 7th & 8th grade classroom over the past few days to teach the science of how gratitude improves your own mental health. Ss then wrote thank you notes to a special person in their life. Ask about it! @whufsdrams #RamResolve @smurrayLB
While COVID protocols prevent us from inviting the entire community, we are thrilled to have live theater happening again in WH! The cast of Matilda is getting ready for the curtain to rise on night 1 for a firiends and family performance @whufsdrams #RamResolve @smurrayLB
It's tryout day for this year's "Hackathon" team. Our school's top coders are vying for a spot on our competitive Hackathon team under the direction of GW's Ms. Perlow. They will need to complete a number of challenges in a number of programing languages. @whufsdrams @smurraLB
More early morning work at the WHMS gymnasium. The spray foam insulation is going up on one side and the brick façade is going up on the other. Always exciting to watch the work unfold. @whufsdrams #RamResolve @smurrayLB
Ms. Gerbino is teaching students how to be “power users” of Flipgrid in her ELA class. It can do so much more than just record a two-minute video. Can’t wait to see the results! @whufsdrams #RamResolve @smurrayLB
The learning doesn’t stop at 2:40 at WHMS. Here Ms. Klein supports students in extra help after the end of the school day. Commitment from students to succeed and teachers to ensure success. @whufsdrams #RamResolve @smurrayLB
Thanks to our mental health team for putting this new bulletin board in the cafeteria. As we teach Habits of Mind in our classrooms, students can keep learning while they eat lunch. These are Habits for a lifetime of success! @whufsdrams #RamResolve @smurrayLB
Students in Ms. Gerbino's and Ms. Rogan's English class are mapping out the key elements of their narratives in preparation for the drafting portion of this process writing piece. Planning first, writing second! @whufsdrams #RamResolve @smurrayLB
Our HS buddies put out a "Field of Honor" to commemorate veterans in our community with funds raised to support local veterans groups. A noble way to honor the sacrifice of all those who serve in the armed forces. Thank you for your service! @whufsdrams #RamResolve @smurrayLB
