The XC teams did their workout down at the park today. It's amazing how many miles are put in during ball tag. We had to pose for a picture because the playground will be replaced soon.

Mrs. Nelson's third grade class celebrated Constitution Day today by participating in the 2026 Nationwide Constitution Day Mock Trial with third grade classes across the United States.

10th and 11th grade students with Judge Cohorst embracing Civic Engagement and Readiness:
Implementing strategies and resources to work with students becoming more competent in democracy, freedom, having a voice in a peaceful way, and giving back to their communities. Hopefully, with the preliminary interactions from Judge Cohorst students begin to understand how to address solutions within systems that create positive culture and impact. These roles can often embrace leadership within schools as well. Understanding those respectful relationships with each other can allow for the building of cognitive processing in decision making processes to address true positive change. Great space to begin!

Game Day!

After a tough loss at Hanover this past Friday, the Tiger football team has come to practice this week and worked on improving and correcting our mistakes. This Friday, 9/18, we travel to play the Manhattan Eagles at Fairmont Park. The address for the field is 125 Messenger Rd Manhattan, KS There are limited bleachers, so it's encouraged to bring a lawn chair or a blanket to watch from the sidelines. Thank you all for your continued support this season. Let's Go Tigers🏈🐅🏈🐅

Good Afternoon 2nd Grade Parents,

Just a note on how to take care of the school tiger shirts. This year's shirts are 100% polyester and should be washed INSIDE OUT in COLD water and dried on LOW heat. If the shirts are dried on high heat, the design will begin to pull away from the fabric.

Any decorated shirt, needs to be washed inside out. It helps preserve the design. Otherwise, the design rubs against other clothing in the washer and dryer and does not last as long.

Thank you Dale Taskinen for the wonderful books you donated to the HS library! We appreciate you so much!

Send the name of your favorite tiger and their team to buttons@usd108.org to order. Buttons and magnets are $4.50 each.

What a beautiful day to spend at the fair today. It was a much drier day this year, and we are all very thankful. The Marching Tigers competed in both the Marching and the Arena style competitions at the Kansas State Fair today and earned two Excellent (2) ratings. We could be more proud of the 7-12 band and they showed significant progress. Their pivot skills in the arena showed significant improvement from the first week of practice. With 3 weeks of practice we are excited to see what the next three weeks can bring. Thank you to the Lions Club for our new marching caps, and thank you to FBLA for the shirts and the quick turn around!!

Mrs. Walter’s 2nd grade has finished their first social studies unit about U.S. Symbols. We learned about the bald eagle, Statue of Liberty, Liberty Bell, Mount Rushmore, and many important places in Washington D.C.

The 4th graders learned about elastic potential energy using catapults. 2 competitions were held, distance of a flung eraser and accuracy-closest to hit a target with a flung eraser.

WCHS will not be playing a JV game at D-West. The Varsity game times are 6 PM vs. Blue Valley and 7 PM vs. Doniphan West.
