Union State Bank representatives Lindsey Hatesohl, Barnes branch, and Jericho Hammond, Clay Center branch, spoke to the Financial Literacy classes on Tuesday. They spoke about the importance of communicating with your local bank when mistakes occur, the difference between memo and hard posting, their individual paths to their current careers and other relevant banking information. Thank you ladies for your time and enthusiasm to help educate our students.
Gavyn has been busy working out in the woodshop. He has constructed a nice sewing table and a laundry-area tabletop for his grandmother, as well as scoured the scrap bins to make stools for socializing. Good job, Gavyn!
Momo did an awesome job on her Kansas wall hanging. She free-handed routered the Highland cow, and hand-painted the sunflowers. Good job, Momo!
Brayttan built a quality fishing pole rack out of cedar. These are great projects to help organize all the fishing gear a person accumulates. Good job, Brayttan!

The WCHS boys team competed at two different meets today. Coach Edmonds took 8 athletes to Clay Center to compete today. There were several pr's at Clay today. Kane in the javelin and triple jump and Jorge in the shot put and discus. We had a lot of kids step up and fill relay spots there and for that we are grateful and proud. The rest of the team competed at our home meet. The boys competed well and had 9 pr's; Atticus in the 800 & 1600, Blake in the discus, Michael threw a monster pr in the discus(143'1"), Tanner in the javelin, Brody in the 800, Lucas in the 800 and long jump, and the 4x100 team of Chayse, Tanner, Tucker, and Eli Crome. The boys have been putting in a lot of hard work and to have this many pr's on a day like this is outstanding. The hard work is starting to show !!
The WCHS girls track team competed at our home meet today. Once again they had less than ideal track meet conditions. The girls didn't let that hold them back though. There were 9 pr's today despite the cool weather. Alyssa and Amaya PR'd in long jump, Emerson threw a massive pr in javelin, Madison ran a very strong 800, Chancie PR'd in the 200, Nora had another monster 30 second pr in the 3200, Anna PR'd in the 100 hurdles, Momo PR'd in the 100, and the 4x1 team PR'd and broke the school record. The girls competed hard and came away with a 3rd place team title as well. We are proud and excited for the future!!
AND.......... we have a new school record in the girls 4x100 relay!!!!! The old record from 2010 of 51.29 was broken by the team of Macie Gepner, Momo Suzuki, Anna Goeckel, and Alyssa Jueneman. They ran a 51.28 on a less than ideal track meet day. Super proud of these girls!!

The junior high track team battled the conditions today at Valley Heights. After a lightening delay, the weather was cold and windy and the ground was soggy! Our kids worked hard and even with the conditions we had 33 PR's. We had many kids step up to fill positions of kids that couldn't compete. Our last meet is Tuesday at home for our League Meet!
Current weather delay for JH track at Valley Heights.
The 8th grade students traveled to the Kansas State Capitol on Friday. They had a great time!!!
