Our grade school students are building their understanding of multiplication through repeated addition! Students practiced making equal groups and connecting repeated addition to multiplication while playing the game “Squares.” 🧮 A fun, hands-on way to strengthen math skills while learning through play! #WPSconnects #WGS
Our grade school students are building their early reading skills by practicing blending sounds to make words! Students used fly swatters to race to be the first to spot and “swat” the word they heard. 📖 #WPSconnects #WGS

There has been a reported widespread electrical outage in Winthrop, including at all three of our schools. Due to not having access to running water, we are doing an early dismissal. Middle and high school students will be sent home immediately, and then the elementary students. Grade school students will be dismissed around two o clock. We apologize for this inconvenience and hope to have power restored by tomorrow.
