Your child has access to their own account as well. They should be very familiar with the platform because we have been using it in their classes all school year.
To access OnCourse Connect, you will need to go through the school website. The link is under “For Students” and “online resources.” If students Google OnCourse, their usernames and passwords won’t work. Use the username/ password provided to you at the beginning of the year.
These are the exact same lessons as those posted on the teachers OnCourse pages. If you need help logging into OnCourse Connect, please contact us via email at wfms@wfpsb.org. Please include your child’s name in the email so that we can assist you in a timely fashion.
These lessons are all focused on skills that they have either covered or will need in preparation for LEAP Testing. For students who do not have internet at home, we have prepared some paper-based packets and will have those available in the office Thursday from 7:00am – 5:00pm
Good Evening,
In this unprecedented time, we will be working diligently to make sure that we continue to provide learning opportunities for your children. We have asked each of our core content teachers to put together 10 lessons that will help students in their endeavors. Page 1
It was another great day for the WFMS Youth Legislature! We had 8 bills signed into law and 20 students inducted into the hall of fame. To top it off, Joel Rogers was recognized for being an outstanding leader and role model, and WFMS was specifically recognized for their overall leadership skills and work ethic. Go Saints! 💙 #wearewestfel
Today was a great day for the WFMS Youth Legislature. Joel Rogers was named Lieutenant Governor, Lilly Higgins is Speaker of the House, and Will Bergeron is Speaker Pro Temp. Then things got EVEN BETTER when State Senator Womack, who represents West Feliciana Parish, came to visit!
