Hello WMS Pioneer Families!
The WMS PTSO is asking for help with the WooHoo Store. Students earn WooHoo tickets when they demonstrate "The West Way" behavior. WooHoo tickets can be entered into a drawing for gift cards or used to buy prizes at the WooHoo store. WMS is looking for adult volunteers to help with the store on Wednesdays and Fridays during the students' lunch periods. This is a great way to get involved, increase connectivity with our Pioneers and have some fun!
The Sign Up Genius for caregiver volunteering is available here: https://www.signupgenius.com/go/5080B4DAEAA2DA7FB6-woohoo
We are always looking for donations to the store, and the Amazon wish list is located here: https://www.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/ls/3U507ZYZJV98B?ref_=wl_share. All items purchased from the list will be shipped directly to WMS.
If you have any questions, feel free to reach out to the WooHoo store coordinator, Jessica Robb, at jessica.e.robb@outlook.com.
