Come Support WLMS this Tuesday Night! ❤️🖤
Welcome Back, Mr. Beane! 🇺🇸 We are so excited to welcome our principal, Jesse Beane, back to WLMS after serving on assignment with the National Guard for the past 5½ months. As a Lighthouse School, we are honored to see the Leader in Me principles lived out in action—both through Mr. Beane’s service to our country and through the strong leadership demonstrated here at home.
We have the best- thank you Lisa, Emma, Traci and Tim! Don’t know what we would do without you!

We had the joy of surprising Ms. Tina Boyles, art teacher at WLMS, with a very special recognition!
Ms. Boyles thought we were there to interview her for Fine Arts Week… but instead, she was surprised with a heartfelt video message from one of her former students. 💜
It was a touching reminder of the lasting impact teachers have on their students’ lives—long after the final bell rings.
