Good afternoon Western Alamance Middle School families, this is Principal Aaron Acome.
I hope you all had a wonderful weekend! As we approach the end of March, I want to remind everyone that Friday, March 28, is a Teacher Workday, which means there will be no school for students.
PBIS: Our PBIS celebration will be Thursday March 27th. Kona Ice will be on the back field again. Students with 20 stamps can bring $5 to participate after lunch.
Spring Picture Day: Spring Picture Day is coming up on April 8, 2025, at Western Alamance Middle School!

Student Dismissal: Lately, we have seen an increasing number of students remaining on campus well past 4:15 p.m., some as late as 4:45 - 5:00 p.m., without supervision. All car riders must be picked up in the front of the school between 3:30 p.m. and 4:15 p.m. Any student still on campus after 4:15 p.m. who is not under the supervision of a staff member (a coach or classroom teacher) will be escorted to our After-School Care Program, where parents will be required to park, come inside, and sign their child out (Families will also be charged the daily rate for after-school care).
