    Thanks to the amazing Wildcat PTA for a fun-filled night at the Oscars celebrating our Year 3 students!  The first Year 3 dance in our new building created brand new traditions that will last for years to come!  Students danced all night, enjoyed the courtyard games and kicked off a week of celebrating the end of their middle school years! 

     


    Year 3 Students will turn in Chromebooks on Monday and Tuesday.  WCPSS 9th graders will receive new devices at their high schools in August. 

     

     

    Yearbooks will be distributed on June 6 to students who purchased a yearbook in advance. Please encourage your student to write his/her name in permanent ink on inside cover of the yearbook and to keep the yearbook with him/her while at school.  Yearbooks are SOLD OUT! 

     

     

    Congratulations to the 2023-24 Student Council Officers!  We are excited about their leadership for the upcoming school year.
