⚠️⚠️⚠️WARNING ⚠️⚠️⚠️
CUTENESS OVERLOAD AHEAD
PROCEED WITH CAUTION
EdRising students recently helped our little friends at WES with Dot Day activities. When they were finished making art, students found the comfy chairs and enjoyed a good book (or three) read by a big buddy.







WHAT'S TECH GOT TO DO WITH IT?
Mr. Doran’s English classes integrate technology into their lessons on a daily basis to allow for a variety of teaching and learning modalities to accommodate all learners.



HOSPITALITY and TOURISM
Baileigh Akers, a student in Mrs. Shannon's Hospitality and Tourism class, was the teacher for the day. She taught the class how to make her favorite pizza bread, and the class was excited to report that it was delicious!






SLIME TIME
Today, students in Mrs. Logsdon’s science class made slime, observing the phases of matter changing from liquids to solids. We call this a magical learning experience!





CATS CREATIN' COASTERS
This week, students in our Cats Creations class have been learning to design and make car coasters using an online design program, printer, and heat press. As you can see, they also reflect school spirit! We are so proud of their innovations!


THANK YOU
We are so appreciative of the ladies of the Wurtland Missionary Baptist Church. They have continued to provide our school with feminine hygiene products! Thank you, ladies, for loving our students! ❤️


This looks like another great win over East Carter! Congratulations to the Lady Musketeers on our seventh-grade basketball team! 🏀

PLEASE SHARE: SCHOOL-WIDE FIELD TRIP (9.15.23)
As students have probably already shared, we are going on a school-wide field trip tomorrow! Why?! Because we have had a great week at Wurtland Middle School, and this is the year to celebrate the individuals who come together to make up our wonderful student body.
As a precursor to a very special Veterans Day ceremony that is fast approaching, we will be taking our students to visit the traveling Veterans Memorial Wall in Olive Hill. Buses will depart at 9:00 a.m. After that, we will head to Carter Caves for lunch and a bit of fun. Lunch will be provided for students; however, students are also welcome to pack their own lunches. We plan to return to school by 2:00 p.m.
Please make sure your son and/or daughter is dressed appropriately and ready for a great day! We love our Wildcats!


READER OF THE WEEK
Mrs. Long shares that, after recently going to the library, Harley has taken his book from class to class. When he has free time, you can always find him diving into his book. Way to go, Harley!
READERS ARE LEADERS AT WURTLAND MIDDLE SCHOOL!
