Did someone say gingerbread house challenge? Our Fourth & Fifth grade MIEP students were asked to design gingerbread houses from a variety of provided materials — and WOW, their creativity blew us away! From clever structural ideas to colorful decorations, every student brought something unique.







Feeling all the birthday love at WPS today! Homemade cards from Ms. Bowen’s class, a chorus of Happy Birthday from Ms. Stewart’s class, gorgeous flowers from the staff, and my very own honeybun cake — I’m so blessed and grateful to work with the best people.


Have you seen our kindness board? During November, WPS students learned about kindness through the story Kindness Is Cooler, Mrs. Ruler by Margery Cuyler. Families watched for kind moments and wrote what they saw on red hearts — now our board is bursting with real-life acts of kindness!

What an amazing showing of generosity! Today we celebrated the top three classes — Ms. Beach/Knox, Ms. Stewart, and Ms. Toler — with a pizza party after they collected over 1,100 non-perishable items for our canned food drive. Altogether, WPS collected more than 1,800 items to support the Salvation Army and local food banks this holiday season. We are so proud of our students, staff, and community for coming together to help families in need.



Our 4th grade students are visiting the Rock Museum today for an educational field trip focused on geology and natural history. Wishing them safe travels and a meaningful learning experience that sparks curiosity and critical thinking.

Can you imagine a more perfect day? Our Exceptionally STEAM students rode the train twice, made s'mores, fed the fish, ate the biggest chicken tenders, and played until they dropped — all thanks to Deadwood! We are so appreciative of everyone who helped make this experience possible.

Want to know how to get students excited before a big test? Thanks so much to Zack Holden from WITN for stopping by WPS today to talk all things weather with our 5th graders! Students enjoyed hands-on learning and real-world connections — just what they needed ahead of tomorrow’s NC Check-In.

Who knew a little snow could spark so much learning? Huge thanks to Kristi Roberson for sending snow our way — it made for a fantastic sensory activity! The children loved feeling the cold, molding snow, and discovering new textures.



Who says learning can’t be fun? On Friday, our MIEP students enjoyed Free Choice electives — Ms. Edwards' and Mrs. Reason's classes mixed up homemade play dough and created large snowflake and star decorations. It was hands-on, creative, and full of smiles!




Kids Excel will not operate this afternoon due to it being an early release day.
What a jam-packed Friday at our school! We kicked off the day with a Car Line Coffee fundraiser featuring some of our MIEP students as baristas — such a proud moment! Students who earned 80% positive behavior got to shop the Tiger Trolley and pick a cool toy. We wrapped up the evening with an energetic Sneaker Ball Dance.
A huge THANK YOU to our parents and community for all your support — we couldn’t do it without you!

Curious minds at work! Mrs. Wilder’s kindergarten class finished their unit on How Plants Grow and they planted “Candy Canes”! We’re excited to watch their little scientists observe, care for, and (hopefully) harvest a special Christmas surprise. Will candy canes really grow? Follow along for updates and photos from our Christmas Harvest




How do you make math delicious? Mrs. Wilder’s kindergarten class partnered up for a “Cereal Bowl” math game — students took turns guessing how many Fruit Loops were hidden under a cup, using “1 more” strategies and comparing counting techniques. After the game, they decided the best part was enjoying the cereal together!




Bus 224 is running behind schedule.
What a morning! Huge thanks to Ms. Beth Griffin for leading our Magnifying Monday — we kicked off December with 15 kids, staff, and parents gathered in prayer and a meaningful lesson on good judgment and staying focused on Christ. It was a GREAT morning! Special shoutout to everyone who got up early in the cold to be there — your presence made a difference.
