✨One of our favorite days of the year! ✨
Today, 6th grade Bruins opened their First-Day Letters — the ones they wrote to themselves on the very first day of school.
📬💙 They read their words from months ago, reflected on how much they’ve grown, and wrote back as their future, newly graduated selves. 🎓💭
Most had totally forgotten they even wrote one, but their reactions were priceless. 🥹
💌 A special tradition we’ll cherish! 💫 #WBMS #FutureYou
🌊 Our 8th graders took flight and made waves on an unforgettable trip to North Carolina! They explored the Wright Brothers Memorial, discovered the science of flight, learned about ocean life and renewable energy at Jennette’s Pier, and even tried their hand at fishing! 🎣
This cross-curricular adventure was a smashing success! 💙
