Good Morning WMS Families:

PTO Updates

Cookie Dough Fundraiser: The Wamsutta PTO's cookie dough fundraiser starts today. Students will be bringing home packets with all the information needed to get started. Money raised will be used to offset costs for student programs, activities and field trips. Please consider registering and sharing links with family and friends online. Our goal is to have each student get 5 supporters. You can register at www.ShopFund.com. Here are some helpful links to get started:
