Middle schoolers never cease to amaze us, and at WJMS, they've done it again—this time by asking for more opportunities to publicly thank their teachers! Whether it’s inspiring confidence in hands-on science labs, exploring the Colonial Regions with a sense of humor, or providing help with coding and micro-bits, we love that these JCS teachers approach each instructional moment with with intentionality, purpose, and joy!
