Dear Parents and Families:

We’re excited to invite you to our upcoming Scholastic Book Fair. Hosted by our staff, this event is an opportunity for students of all ages to build their home libraries and further their love of reading. As always, all purchases benefit our school.

After missing out on many beloved traditions, our Spring Book Fair will be a familiar, welcome, and safe event for our students. Here’s what you need to know about the Fair, which will take place from Thursday, March 30th to Friday, April 11th at the Woodcreek Middle School Library during normal school hours.  

We will be offering some special events to help students and their families have a chance to shop the fair:

• Friday, March 31st for parents to have lunch in the Library and shop with their child.  You MUST SIGN UP to have lunch with your child today as space is limited.  

• We will also be hosting Family Night as a way  for families to purchase books together on Tuesday, April 4th from 4-5:30 pm in the Library.

• Thursday, April 6th for parents to have lunch in the Library and shop with their child.  You MUST SIGN UP to have lunch with your child today as space is limited.  

We will not be taking any cash during our Book Fair but parents and Families can utilize credit cards, Cash App, Google pay or Scholastic eWallets, a safe and secure alternative to cash for their students to purchase books. Simply create a free account to add funds and/or invite family and friends to contribute so your child can select their own books. Any unused funds can be spent at The Scholastic Store Online or to fund a future eWallet.

• If you can’t make it to the Fair, then shop online at our school’s Virtual Book Fair. All orders ship directly to your home, and shipping is free for book orders over $25. Your online orders will also benefit our school.

• To see what books you may want to purchase, please look through the Interactive Book Flyer!  It even includes BOOK COMMERCIALS!

CALLING ALL IMMUNIZATION RECORDS!!

As your children receive their middle school immunizations, please remember to bring or send a copy of their updated immunization record to Nurse Brown at the WMS clinic. Many of your children have probably already received these immunizations. For those who still need their updated vaccines, please make these appointments very soon.  According to Texas state law, without proof of the required vaccines, your child(ren) will not be able to attend school and may be withdrawn.  This is especially important for 6th grade students who are entering 7th grade.  Please call Nurse Brown at 281-641-5205 or email at stacy.brown@humbleisd.net if you have any questions.

WMS PARENTS & STAFF: 

Box Tops for Education has been around for 25 years, giving families an easy way to help earn money for schools with products that we buy every day.  But remember how involved it used to be with all of the cutting, counting and submitting the box tops?  It was a huge undertaking - I remember!  But now, there's an app for that and it's SO easy!  We all buy groceries and shop for household items, right?  Even if you have your groceries delivered, you can still use your online receipts! 

If you don't already have the app, you can scan the code on the attachment and get it in seconds and start earning for your student's campus.  We would really appreciate your participation.  Please see the attached flyer and help us earn money for our students at WMS. We have a lofty goal this year of $1500 and we'd LOVE to exceed that!  Please help us! 

Woodcreek Middle School offers tutoring in all subjects several times a week.  Please view the tutoring schedule to make plans for your child to attend one today. 

Please note that students must sign up for tutorials with the teacher and get a pass to re-enter the building for tutoring. A student can attend tutorials from any teacher in same grade and subject to get help.

WMS 2022-23 Tutoring Schedule

One of our goals this year is for each member of our staff to provide ELITE Customer service to you.  Our customer service campaign is called Woodcreek C.A.R.E.S (Caught Acting and Responding in Elite Style).  We would like you to use the form to let us know about your interactions with teachers, administrators, office professionals, or other staff members on our campus throughout the year. 

Please share with us when you have had a positive or negative experience.  Your feedback will allow us to celebrate those who are doing well and help us find areas to grow.
