Literacy Night at WHAM was fantastic! Students and their families were able to shop the book fair, visit the East Baton Rouge Parish Library Bookmobile, participate in various literacy activities, and more! Thank you to Ms. Lakvold and Ms. Clare for organizing this fun learning event! Also, we are so thankful for the teachers, parent volunteers, and community organizations for their involvement in making this event such a huge success! We are thrilled to recognize our 2024-2025 Employees of the Year! WHAM students and staff are so fortunate to reap the benefits of your hard work and compassion! Congratulations to the following staff members: Ms. Wynne, Teacher of the Year Ms. Virginia, Classified Employee of the Year Ms. Dugas, New Teacher of the Year Ms. Moore, Mentor Teacher of the Year See the comments below each of their pictures to see some nice things their colleagues had to say about them!  "Ms. Wynne is extremely knowledgeable in her content area. Her instruction is effective and fosters the love and reading and writing in her students!" "Ms. Wynne has voluntarily started an after-school Fiber Arts Club for 4th-5th grade students and WHAM alumni. This club has helped build a sense of community among WHAM current and former students."  "Ms. Virginia always goes above and beyond to help EVERYONE with whatever they need and she always does it with a smile!! I really appreciate her dedication to WHAM!" "Ms Virginia's love of WHAM is evident in all that she does. She truly cares about each and every student, and their families. She makes WHAM feel welcoming and safe, and just makes the school a better place. Her willingness to assist anyone with anything is truly remarkable....and she never expects recognition or anything in return. She is a gem of a human!"  "Ms. Dugas has been amazing from the moment she arrived at WHAM! Her ability to connect to students is beyond meaningful to the classroom. Her desire to learn and grown has helped her be ready for instruction from the beginning! When you watch her teach, you would not think she is a first year teacher. She is also very willing to jump in and help whenever help is needed!! We are so lucky to have her at WHAM!!!" "Ms. Dugas excels in classroom management and effectively maintains the students' engagement in their learning activities."  "Ms. Moore helps support so many students and teachers in the school. She goes above and beyond to help the teachers on campus to support student in need!"
"I love Mrs. Moore's sunshiny personality, and she is very approachable. She is knowledgeable about her area, but she does not act as though she is above everyone else. I love Mrs. Moore!"  PLEASE USE THE LINK BELOW TO ACCESS THE OCTOBER ISSUE OF THE
EBR SCHOOLS PARENT POWER NEWSLETTER. https://view.flodesk.com/emails/66db291a27b08b0db6cb12e8 WHAM has such a special school community that is truly a family…or as we say, a WHAMily! Our PTO (Parent-Teacher Organization) hosts two social events every school year; one in the fall and one in the spring. The fall social was held Friday night, and it was a blast! We celebrated the first birthday of our mascot, Hopper, by signing his birthday shirt, playing games, decorating cupcakes, singing, eating cake and just enjoying each other’s company! Hopper didn’t open gifts because all he wanted for his birthday was for his guests to bring donations for the Baton Rouge Food Bank. He got his wish! Three large boxes of donated items will be delivered this week, and Hopper is thrilled! Thank you to WHAM PTO and parent volunteers who made this event possible and successful! Your hard work is greatly appreciated! Also, we want to send out a thank you to the families that joined us at the fall social. We were so happy to see all of you there! Sending out a big thanks to WHAM 5th grade families for providing a delicious lunch for teachers/staff yesterday! Everything was wonderful! We truly appreciate our families for showing us so much love and appreciation!    |
