Greetings and Happy New Year!! To start off the New Year 2024, "LIFTING AS WE CLIMB", the WCS Staff is very excited about the WCS District Spirit Week activities planned. There is still time to sign up if you are interested in cheering for or playing in the Staff vs. Students Games on 1-4-2024 at WCMS. Beginning at 3:15 pm, Parents and Guardians from all five (5) schools will come inside to the WCMS Media center to receive a free School Supply Replenish Packet for your Scholar from their school's table. You will need to sign for each Scholar for our documentation. Beginning at 6:00 pm will be the first basketball game. We are looking forward to our community coming together for educational information from WCS, fun, light refreshments and the school supply refresh. See you all there!!
