West Jessamine Middle School

​A massive thank you to our incredible WJMS PTO for pouring so much heart and soul into this event. Your hard work behind the scenes truly made our students feel like the brightest stars in the galaxy! 🌟

​The countdown to high school is officially on, but first—we dance! Our 8th graders absolutely radiated tonight at the Class of 2030: Shining Stars formal. From the red carpet arrivals to the DJ, it was a night of unforgettable memories, laughter, and a whole lot of sparkle.🕺⭐️💫

History came alive today at WJMS! 🏛️ Our 6th grade Social Studies students hosted their very own Olympics, bringing ancient traditions to the modern classroom. High energy, great sportsmanship, and a lot of Greek history! 🏅🔥 #WJMS #FutureLeaders #SocialStudies

The 6th grade Wranglers have officially swapped the classroom for the lanes! We’re heading to Main Event for a day of strikes, high scores, and serious team building.

The future of art is in good hands🎨👐 Our students in Gifted Arts Academy poured their talent into their latest pieces. Thank you to Ms. Pinney, Mrs. Cornelius, and JCS Arts for creating special moments for Gifted Arts students👏

Lucky to be a Colt🍀🐎 Our students are rocking their best green today at WJMS.

The 10 year drought is officially over! 🎷🥁

For the first time since 2016, the WJMS Band has earned a Distinguished Rating! These students have put in countless hours, early mornings, and scales on scales to bring this honor back to our halls.

To say we’re proud would be an understatement. The tradition of excellence is officially back in session. 🎼🏆

Forget the bookmarks- Mrs. Clark's 6th graders are wearing their favorite stories ✏️🎨. The class designed "literary tattoos" to represent major themes and symbols from their favorite novels. High creativity, zero needles, and 100% student engagement.
