Good afternoon! Today, we sent home fundraiser information with our students. We would LOVE for everyone to sell at least 5 items if possible! We are selling cookie dough as well as other items online! There is a letter with the flyers that explain all about the fundraiser and how to place an order. We wanted to make it easy for students to sell cookie dough without having to collect money so we have setup all of the cookie dough options through our Online Payment System. Follow this link to order! https://tinyurl.com/y2rzomud Please make sure to include the students name and their homeroom when placing an order so we know who to give the credit to!! Digital students can get involved too! Just stop by the front office to pickup a fundraiser packet!! If you have any questions, please contact the school at 912-287-2341. Have a GREAT evening!
Good afternoon! All cookie dough fundraiser order forms and money need to be turned in tomorrow morning to your child’s homeroom teacher. Please make sure all student information is filled out on the form. Thank you all so much for making this a great fundraiser! We look forward to seeing everyone at school tomorrow!
Happy Thanksgiving!! Please continue to sell cookie dough through this next week. All orders will be due on Monday, Nov. 30th upon our return. We hope you have a wonderful week! Take care & stay safe!

WCMS: Good Afternoon Gators and Parents!
Welcome Back Everyone!
Two important things:
FIRST: All students must be logged into their Ware County Google Account in order to access all Learning Resources and Assignments, that is, typed in as: StudentnumberID@ware.k12.ga.us; for example 12345@ware.k12.ga.us.
Then Students will be prompted to create an new password since All passwords have been reset to Reset1234. The new password needs to be set as WCMS and the student number like this example: WCMS12345. If you have already done this, you will not need to do it again.
Attention All Virtual Students... We just reset the passwords for all student accounts at Ware Middle. We had so many students that didn't know their password so we decided to do that. Their password is Reset1234 and it will prompt them to create a new password when they log in the next time. This will need to be wcms & their student number. For example...wcms54589. Their username should be studentnumber@ware.k12.ga.us. For example: 54589@ware.12.ga.us, if it ask you for an old password.. click forgot password and then click on proceed anyway. If you have any questions, please contact me at amancil@ware.k12.ga.us.
Thanks,
Mrs. Mancil

WCMS Students & Parents! We are hoping that you will help us out by collecting as many can tabs as possible. All of our can tabs will be going to the Ronald McDonald House in Jacksonville to help offset the cost of families staying there. Each pound that they receive will benefit them by $.40-$.60 per pound. They receive several hundred dollars a month and part of this could be because of you and your child. The profit from the can tabs will give these families a chance to stay together during the toughest of times. The homeroom that collects the most can tabs will be rewarded with a pizza party. The contest will runs until October 25. Thank you for your support!

Thank you, WCMS parents for your patience with our car rider procedure today. Please make sure the school personnel gives you a number when they ask for your child’s name and grade and remind your child to obtain their number before leaving the classroom. For example, If you are given #5 then you should stay in the number 5 spot until your child is loaded in your car. As you enter the last curve in the parking lot, please pick a lane and STAY in that lane so that your child will be in the correct spot to load. Do not pull up out of your spot even if the car ahead of you leaves. If you are in the #1 spot, you will be given a red piece of paper that signifies your number. Please return those to the person collecting them. This process will work with the help of all parents, students and staff.
Due to the increasing amount of students who are car riders, Ware County Middle School is changing the location of the car rider line in the afternoons only beginning this Monday, August 12. Morning drop-off remains the same! We ask that you enter the auditorium parking lot as usual and follow the traffic flow. You will not be able to turn left on Cherokee Street after you pick up your child. Two lanes of traffic will be utilized in order to expedite the process for you and your child. Please know that we are trying to ensure that students are safe in the event of inclement weather. Thank you for being patient with us as we strive to have the best possible system in place for all our students.
New afternoon pick up procedure will begin on Monday, August 12, 2019
Ware County Schools has a new parent messaging app this year! If you get a call from +1 (501) 712-2633 Little Rock, Arkansas, that’s us! Please save the number so you will know it isn’t a telemarketer calling. Thanks!
