HAWK TALK

September 2-6

WCA families,

As we launch our new high school,

I am filled with gratitude and excitement. This inaugural year is a special milestone, made possible by the dedication of our pioneering teachers and the enthusiasm of our first 9th-grade students.

Our teachers have laid the groundwork for a nurturing and inspiring learning environment, while our students, the very first to begin this journey with us, have shown eagerness in embracing this new chapter.

Thank you for being a part of this adventure as we create something truly special.

Mrs. Mindel

High School Principal

"God's Creation" STEAM Week

Isn’t it amazing how God created everything from scratch?

In His mighty creation, we see how God turned a world once formless,

empty and dark to all that we have today.

WCA students will explore their God-given ability to make something out of nothing. Through a week of interactive learning experiences, virtual field trips, and problem solving, students will be inspired by God's Creation.

Volunteer Opportunities Will Be Available Sep 9-13

for STEAM Week, Book Fair, and Grandparents Day.

Information and sign-ups will be available soon.

Plans will be made at the PTF meeting Sep 3.

(Please see PTF information below.)

WCA's Spirit Wear Sale ends soon!
