Thomas Wallace Middle School

In our current unit in Accelerated ELA we are reading Romeo and Juliet. After reading the famous balcony scene between Romeo and Juliet, my students were tasked with one of two projects: They could either create an instagram post representing the conversation while citing lines from the play or create vows for Romeo and Juliet's wedding following Shakespeare's Sonnet Style of writing. Here are the finished products. These kids did an AMAZING job and surpassed my expectations! I am so proud of their hard work!

Queridas Familias Increíbles de la Escuela Wallace, Hoy, tuve la increíble oportunidad de acompañar a nuestros estudiantes de 8º grado en su visita a Vineland High School. Tuvimos aproximadamente 258 estudiantes presentes en una presentación muy bien organizada y ejecutada, y estoy emocionada de compartir lo maravillosamente que se desarrolló el día. Al llegar, nuestros Wildcats de Wallace fueron recibidos por la banda de Vineland High School, junto con la cálida hospitalidad del personal y los estudiantes de VHS. El Sr. Adams (Principal), el Sr. Hall (Vice Principal) y el Sr. Lapsley (Vice Principalr) se dirigieron a nuestros estudiantes, hablando sobre los emocionantes cambios para el próximo año, incluida la introducción de la Academia de 9º grado. Durante la visita, nuestros Wildcats de Wallace escucharon a miembros de varios grupos estudiantiles, incluidos AFJROTC, el coro, el SGA, líderes de la clase de cuarto año, teatro, danza y muchos más. Además, los consejeros y maestros hablaron con nuestros estudiantes sobre qué esperar mientras realizan la transición a la escuela secundaria. Como padres, nos encanta hablar sobre nuestros hijos y alabar sus logros. Como la directora de la Escuela Intermedia Thomas Wallace, quiero aprovechar este momento para felicitar a nuestros fantásticos Wildcats de 8º grado. Mostraron un comportamiento increíble durante todo el día. Todo comenzó cuando fueron llamados al auditorio. Se sentaron rápidamente y de manera ordenada según sus asignaciones de autobús sin ningún problema. A pesar de los cambios en nuestro horario para acomodar los almuerzos, nuestros Wildcats de 8º grado manejaron todo sin problemas. Por supuesto, este éxito no podría haberse logrado sin nuestro fenomenal personal de Wallace. Un agradecimiento sincero a: - Los guardias, maestros, asistentes y trabajador social que acompañaron a nuestros estudiantes durante la visita. - El personal de cocina de Wallace por preparar y servir a alrededor de 500 estudiantes en 40 minutos. - Señor Efrain por asegurarse de que tuviéramos suficientes suministros en el café, el gimnasio y la sala de salud durante el almuerzo. - El personal de la oficina por coordinar los arreglos de autobús y cubrir cada detalle a lo largo del día. - Los guardias de seguridad por garantizar el bienestar de nuestros Wildcats. - Los maestros de salón de 8º grado por preparar a nuestros estudiantes con sus asignaciones de autobús y ayudar a asegurar sus pertenencias. - Los maestros de educación física por facilitar el almuerzo en el gimnasio y la sala de salud y ayudar con la supervisión de los estudiantes. - Todos los maestros que asistieron en el auditorio, la cafetería, los pasillos, la sala de salud y el gimnasio durante el almuerzo. - La Sra. Finizio (Vice Principal) por supervisar el edificio en mi ausencia. Sé que este mensaje ha sido extenso, pero consideré crucial expresar lo inmensamente orgullosa que estoy de nuestros Wildcats de 8º grado y nuestro dedicado personal. Realmente creo que no encontrarán a una directora que esté más honrada, orgullosa y que ame tanto a sus estudiantes, personal y familias como yo. ¡Gracias a TODOS por ser tan FANTABULOSOS como son! Gracias, Ms. Rosado

Amazing Wallace School Familias, Today, I had the incredible opportunity to accompany our 8th grade students on their visit to Vineland High School. We had approximately 258 students attend a very well-organized and executed presentation, and I am thrilled to share how wonderfully the day unfolded. Upon arrival, our Wallace Wildcats were greeted by the Vineland High School Band, along with the warm hospitality of the VHS staff and students. Mr. Adams (Principal), Mr. Hall (Vice Principal), and Mr. Lapsley (Vice Principal) addressed our students, discussing the exciting changes for next year, including the introduction of the 9th Grade Academy. During the visit, our Wallace Wildcats listened to members of various student groups, including AFJROTC, Choir, SGA, Senior Class Leaders, Theater, Dance, and many more. Additionally, guidance counselors and teachers spoke to our students about what to expect as they transition to high school. As parents, we love to talk about our children and sing their praises. As the Principal of Thomas Wallace Middle School, I must take this moment to commend our fantastic 8th grade Wildcats. They displayed incredible behavior throughout the day. It all began when they were called to the auditorium. They quickly and orderly sat according to bus assignments without any issues. Even amidst changes to our schedule to accommodate lunches, our 8th grade Wildcats handled everything seamlessly. Of course, this success could not have been achieved without our phenomenal Wallace staff. A heartfelt thank you goes out to: - The Guards, Teachers, Aides, and Social Worker who accompanied our students during the visit. - The Wallace Kitchen Staff for preparing and serving about 500 students within 40 minutes. - Señor Efrain for ensuring we had enough supplies throughout the café, gym, and health room during lunch. - The Office Staff for coordinating bus arrangements and covering every detail throughout the day. - Security Guards for ensuring the well-being of our Wildcats. - The 8th-grade homeroom teachers for preparing our students with their bus assignments and helping with securing their belongings. - PE teachers for facilitating lunch in the gym and health room and assisting with student supervision. - All the teachers who assisted in the auditorium, cafeteria, hallways, health room, and gym during lunch. - Mrs. Finizio for overseeing the building in my absence. I know this message has been lengthy, but I felt it crucial to express how immensely proud I am of our 8th grade Wildcats and our dedicated staff. I truly believe you will not find a Principal who is more honored to be, proud, and loves her students, staff, and families than me. Thank you ALL for being as FANTABULOUS as you are! Gracias, Ms. Rosado

Familias de la escuela Wallace Estoy encantada de compartir con ustedes la emocionante experiencia que tuvieron nuestros estudiantes el viernes 24 de enero de 2025 con el orador invitado especial, Barrett Brooks, un exjugador de los Eagles. Como parte de nuestros esfuerzos continuos para inspirar y motivar a nuestros estudiantes, el Sr. Brooks compartió su poderoso mensaje de esperanza y determinación con nuestros estudiantes. Quedé muy impresionada por el comportamiento excepcional y el respeto de nuestros estudiantes durante todo el evento. Escucharon atentamente las sabias palabras del Sr. Brooks y demostraron respeto y entusiasmo durante la sesión de preguntas y respuestas, la sesión de autógrafos y las oportunidades para tomar fotografías. Fue maravilloso ver a nuestros estudiantes aprovechar estas oportunidades para aprender de alguien que ha logrado un gran éxito a través del trabajo duro y la perseverancia. Estoy muy orgullosa de nuestros estudiantes por ser unos anfitriones maravillosos y por participar en esta experiencia enriquecedora. Creo que eventos como estos ayudan a convertir a nuestros estudiantes en personas seguras, compasivas y motivadas que están equipadas para tener éxito en todos los aspectos de la vida.
