So please know we have scholarships available in the WMS front office for folks that would benefit from them. We ask that all scholarship applications are submitted by December 16.

  • All candy sales end on December 16, 2022, and all candy money is due to the front office by then. If you would like an extension, please call the WMS office.

  • El campamento cuesta $225 por estudiante. Los pagos vencen el 16 de diciembre. Los saldos individuales de los estudiantes se enviarán por correo a casa cuando regresemos de las vacaciones de Acción de Gracias.

  • Nuestro objetivo es que cada estudiante que quiera ir al campamento, pueda ir al campamento. No queremos que el costo sea una barrera. Entonces, tenga en cuenta que tenemos becas disponibles en la oficina principal de WMS para las personas que se beneficiarían de ellas. Pedimos que todas las solicitudes de becas se envíen antes del 16 de diciembre.

  • Todas las ventas de dulces terminan el 16 de diciembre de 2023, y todo el dinero de los dulces se debe a la oficina principal para entonces. Si desea una extensión, llame a la oficina de WMS.

  • Estamos aquí para ayudar y apoyar en todo lo posible. Nuestro objetivo es hacer del campamento una gran experiencia para todos los estudiantes. Comuníquese con cualquier pregunta o inquietud.
