PEP RALLY!
By Staff Writer Ava

Our first pep rally at WMS was a great start to this fun year with seventh grade taking the spirit trophy! Eighth grade took a tough loss, but plans to have a major comeback next time, so watch out. The band was a big hit after months of practicing. They had everyone up on their feet having a good time. A competition that went on was pumpkin bowling which is an annual tradition here at WMS. A shout out to the football, cheer leading, volleyball,and cross country team for their great season.
V-I-C-T-O-R-Y, THAT’S OUR GRIZZLY BATTLE CRY! 
Go Grizzlies!! |

VETERANS Day
By Staff Writer Mya
The eleventh day of the eleventh month, Veterans Day. On this day we remember those who served, those who are currently serving, and those who have lost their lives serving. On November twelfth at WMS we held an assembly honoring all of these men and women. Our service included debuts from the show choirs and band. The reading of patriots pen essay winner Anna, who is a seventh grader. A phenomenal slideshow pieced together by our own Mrs. Robinson. Finally concluding our service was the playing of taps by two of our WMS eighth grade band members Joey and Charlie. In conclusion veterans day was a success and to all the veterans out there from the grizzle, thank you for your service and happy veterans day!

Unity day

On Wednesday, October 24, 2018, WMS had Unity day. Now, what is Unity Day? Unity Day is one day of the year when everyone wears orange to promote a bully-free school. We had a ton of kids show up in orange, it feels good to know that so many kids are promoting a bully-free school! Along with Unity Day, it was also Mix-It-Up day at school on Wednesday! Everyone sat with their birth month at lunch we in order for us to meet and befriend new people. Mrs. Manos played some music, and a bunch of people got up and danced! Mr. Jackson was also giving out orange slushies to anyone wearing orange. It was pretty cool! So why do you think Unity Day is so special here at WMS? Well, Unity Day is a day to show that Wadsworth Middle School is a bully-free environment, and we are proud of that. Stay awesome Grizzlies!

On November 8, WMS had its second dance of the year and it was super fun! The theme that was chosen was blackout which made everyone look so clean and cool. Our two principals, Mr.Jackson and Mr.Ryder helped make it fun by playing songs that everybody loved. A Shout out goes out to all of the people that helped make this amazing night happen. Thank you to everyone who made it out to such a great night, and we hope to see you at the next one!

Scare on the square
By Staff Writer Kenzie
With Halloween right around the corner, Wadsworth had the annual “Scare on the Square” October 26, 2018. “What’s Scare on the Square?” you ask. Scare on the Square is an annual event Wadsworth has every year downtown. You go dressed up in your Halloween costume, and go around to all the different businesses to get candy! Then, at 6:30, the Thriller starts! Thriller is a dance with all the zombies you see laying around town when you walk around. Michael Jackson (Alex Mcllvaine) started the flash mob with his “girlfriend.” Then the zombies joined them in the awesome Thriller dance throughout downtown Wadsworth. This event has become so popular over the years that it is now listed as one of the best family events in NorthEast Ohio by NorthEast Ohio Family Fun.com as well as being covered by WKYC Channel 3 news. Go Wadsworth! (Video created by WKYC)
Canned Food Drive - bring the Trophy Home!
|
Written by Staff Ghost Writer
Yearly, Highland Middle School and our own wonderful Wadsworth Middle School compete in an honorable battle to see who can collect the largest number of cans to feed Medina County. The ultimate goal is to care for those around us while having a friendly rivalry with our swarming neighbors to the north. Last year WMS was not able to hold onto our beloved trophy but 2018 is a new year, our year! Mr. Jackson and Mr. Ryder have two additional incentives to encourage students to bring that food in! One, for every ten cans students will earn a ticket to be drawn to "pie" a teacher or principal at an assembly. Second, if...and ONLY IF WMS raises 10,000 cans, our brave principals will sleep atop our school! Brrrr... So there you have it. So bring in those cans on TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 27th. |
