NEW! WSMS Service Learning Project - April 22 & 23

On April 22 & 23, all WSMS students will participate in our Spring Leopards by Nature Service Learning Project.

All 7th and 8th grade students will work outside on campus during their science classes to:

Improve and maintain our edible garden area
Install donated bird feeders and pollinator houses
Install new native landscaping and pollinator garden next to edible garden area
refresh/maintain existing native landscaping
Install and create a new outdoor class seating area

Prior to this project, students will receive an introductory lesson on the importance of native plants, habitats, and ecosystems to their community and school.

Here’s how you can help:

Volunteer! Parent and community volunteers are needed (see sign up genius link). It’s been quite an unusual year, so don’t miss this opportunity to serve alongside our students.
Donate/Loan! A wish list (see sign up genius link) for items we need purchased or loaned to the school to make this possible.
Purchase a t-shirt! Revtrak link coming soon...we are encouraging students to purchase a Leopards by Nature t-shirt for $12 designed by 7th grader, Hannah Xie. All profits from t-shirt sales help fund purchase of compost, mulch and native plants and flowers.
Become a Sponsor! We are seeking local businesses to sponsor this year’s Leopard by Nature Service Learning event. Your company logo will be featured on the back of the t-shirt designed by 7th grade student Hannah Xie. Sponsors help us stretch our dollars to make biggest impact. Thanks for considering!
