School dances are held three times a year during the day. The school is shortened to the equivalent of a 2-hour early dismissal, with the last two hours for the dance. Students are escorted to the dance in grade order with the 8th graders going first and leaving last. The dance is held in the gym and is heavily supervised. Refreshments are available, and students can have their pictures taken. Dances cost two dollars, and student who show kindness and other acts of generosity to students can be awarded WMS bucks to help defray the costs.
There are alternate activities for those students who don’t wish to participate in the dance. Students can watch a movie in the movie room, or they can participate in quiet activities such as board games, video games, chatting, or reading in the quiet room.
