Dear WGIS Families,

Thats a wrap for WGIS and the 2025 calendar year! We ended our week with a trip to the JMA Wireless Dome to see the SU Woman's Basketball Team defeat Mercyhurst 106-40! The students had a great time cheering on the Orange and representing WGIS with pride.

As we continue through to the New Years, please accept my sincerest wishes for everyone to have a Happy Holiday Season and New Year! I hope everyone is afforded time to be with friends and family over the next few weeks.

Thank you for your continued support for all students at WGIS. As always, please reach out if you need anything.

Be Kind-Work Hard-Think BIG!

It's a great day to be a wildcat!

Mr. MacCollum

Dear WGIS Families,

WGIS made the best of a crazy weather week! Make no mistake, our students and staff work hard on our 2 hour delays, with students not missing a single class and staff making sure they are still getting the critical information they need to find success!

I also had the pleasure of assembling our "Wildcat Cabinet" for the first time today! Our cabinet is made up of the most recent "Wildcat Way" award winners from our teams (about 60 students) and is put in place to discuss the student perspective of life at WGIS. Students were able to share feedback and ideas for how we can continue to make WGIS the best it can be!

Thank you for your continued support for all students at WGIS. As always, please reach out if you need anything.

Be Kind-Work Hard-Think BIG!

It's a great day to be a wildcat!

Dear WGIS Families,

What a first week of December! If it wasn't clear before, winter has arrived! Here at WGIS, that means watching the weather and parent square for any possible delays or cancellations as well as making sure we are ready for the day! We are able to bring students outside for recess as long as the "real feel" temperature is 20 degrees or warmer. If our temperatures are 20 degrees, make sure students are prepared to possibly go outside for recess to get some fresh air!

I anticipate these next few weeks going quickly for everyone. Please reach out should you have any concerns or a need for assistance this month. We understand that this can be both a wonderful month for many and difficult for others. Please know that we are here to support all of our families.

Thank you for your continued support for all students at WGIS. As always, please reach out if you need anything.

Be Kind-Work Hard-Think BIG!

It's a great day to be a wildcat!

Dear WGIS Families,

I hope everyone has a wonderful Thanksgiving with friends and family. I am always blown away by the generosity of our community here at WGIS. We have collected donations for food pantries, had our cereal drive for local food pantries and last week had joined the rest of the district and our region with Paige's Pajamarama. We are certainly better together, I would like to thank everyone for their generosity towards one another.

I would also ask that if there are any families looking for some support this year, please reach out. These donations and causes are meant to support our entire community and that certainly includes our WGIS families. It is not always easy to ask, but please reach out and let us know if you need anything.

Thank you for your continued support for all students at WGIS. As always, please reach out if you need anything. I hope everyone has a wonderful weekend!

Be Kind-Work Hard-Think BIG!

It's a great day to be a wildcat!

Mr. MacCollum
