WOW! Thank you to our Bulldog families and extended families! WGS teachers have received $3,290 in gift cards from the SchoolStore fundraiser AND we have also earned $548 in profit! Part of that profit will be used to pay for a marionette presentation of The Legend of Sleepy Hollow in mid-October!

The Bulldogs went on a learning adventure today. They traveled to the Holocaust Exhibit at Union Station. The students learned a great deal and truly represented our community. We were told on our way in AND on our way out "This group was a pleasure to have at our exhibit". Thank You to everyone who helped make today happen. Awesome Job Bulldogs!
