This past week, our WLAMS community came together to celebrate the Family Support strength through our Sources of Strength program. Families and students shared lunch, conversations, and meaningful moments that reminded us how powerful connection and support can be.
Thank you to our families for showing up, our peer leaders for leading with purpose, and our staff for helping create a space where students feel supported, encouraged, and connected. This is what it looks like when a school community works together.

Esta semana pasada, nuestra comunidad WLAMS se reunió para celebrar la fuerza del apoyo familiar a través de nuestro programa Sources of Strength. Las familias y los estudiantes compartieron almuerzos, conversaciones y momentos significativos que nos recordaron lo poderosas que pueden ser la conexión y el apoyo.
Gracias a nuestras familias por aparecer, a nuestros líderes de pares por liderar con propósito y a nuestro personal por ayudar a crear un espacio donde los estudiantes se sientan apoyados, alentados y conectados. Así es como se ve cuando una comunidad escolar trabaja en conjunto

So proud of our Toros!

On Saturday, several band students participated in District Honor Band Auditions. The Georgia Music Educators Association (GMEA) District Band is an outstanding performance opportunity for highly motivated band students. Students are selected via audition and get to rehearse and perform a concert with a world-class clinician and students from across the region.

We are SO EXCITED to share that OMAR LAGUNA auditioned and was selected to participate in our District 14 Honor Band this year. He is the FIRST ever student from WLAMS to be awarded this honor. This is an amazing accomplishment for our band program as we continue to build a culture of excellence.

Congratulations, Omar!

Today, WLAMS students had the opportunity to participate in the Gainesville Christmas Parade! Our cheerleaders and NJHS students represented our school in TORO fashion. It was awesome to hear folks in the crowd cheering on the Toros as they walked down Green Street! #torobien ¡Hoy, los estudiantes de WLAMS tuvieron la oportunidad de participar en el Desfile de Navidad de Gainesville! Nuestras animadoras y estudiantes de NJHS representaron a nuestra escuela al estilo TORO. ¡Fue increíble escuchar a la gente en la multitud animando a los Toros mientras caminaban por Green Street! #Torobien
