Home of the Bighorns...

Being a student at James Workman Middle School means much more than simply showing up with a backpack and leaving with homework assignments.  At JWMS, students and staff communicate, learn, and create in a growing technology-based environment.  Our mascot, the Bighorn, embodies strength and perseverance - two qualities that our students possess.

​The Crag website is meant to be the digital home of our JWMS Bighorns, a place where they can stay current, celebrate achievements, and appreciate middle school life.

End of Trimester 1 is October 30th!
The end of the trimester is coming soon. Make sure you check your grades on StudentVue and ParentVue and make sure all your assignments are turned in. If you have missing assignments, email your teacher and ask which ones you can turn in late for credit. 

As we approach the start of trimester two, evaluate your performance during trimester one.  What did you do well?  What needs improvement?  How can you improve your performance in school for trimester two?  

Things to consider going into trimester two.
  • Set goals for improvement for the new trimester.  Evaluate how you can improve your performance as an individual.  Discuss your goals with your family.  Set a time each week to go over your progress and check your grades.
  • Where do you sit during school?  Do you use a table or desk? 
  • Do you have a printed copy of the bell schedule?  It's important to know which class to go to and when on zoom.  
  • Do you have access to StudentVue and ParentVue?  If you need to gain access, please email jwmsinfo@psusd.us to get your account unlocked.
  • Do you have headphones on during class to minimize distractions in your home?  
  • Are you keeping track of your assignments in an agenda or in a spiral notebook?  
  • Are you minimizing your distractions in your home?  Examples include tv, cell phones, ipads/etc.

Our Mission . . .

The mission of The Crag is to provide a communication device within the educational community of James Workman Middle School. We strive to provide excellent, creative, student driven (made) content.

Why did we choose the name "The Crag"?

According to Nature Works, the bighorn sheep prefer to live in areas full of rocky slopes they can climb in order to evade predators.  The definition of a crag is as follows: "A steep rugged mass of rock projecting upward or outward."  Since the JWMS Bighorns are always climbing toward continued academic success, and since the school website should be their digital "home" away from home, we thought naming our website "The Crag" would be a tribute to the spirit of the Bighorn.  Enjoy the site!
