Planning a family vacation, appointment, or special trip this school year?
With 169 student attendance days on the academic calendar, every day of learning matters. To help families plan ahead, we've created a USD 108 Vacation Planner that highlights major school breaks throughout the year.
Whenever possible, we encourage families to schedule vacations, appointments, and other activities during school breaks to maximize student attendance and learning opportunities.
The complete district calendar is always available at usd108.org.
This planner is intended as a quick reference for students and families. Some listed breaks include teacher and staff workdays when students are not in attendance.

Attention.
There will be a HS Football player and parent meeting Tuesday June 16 @ 7 PM in the High School Library.
I need to share information about a couple events coming up in the next couple weeks
The Dr. Dish shooting machine is a big hit. We would like to say thanks to the Booster Club and Coach Huckett for making this happen. It is a great tool for our kids to improve this off season.

State track meet participants were honored at the June BOE meeting. Nine student athletes competed in 13 events. State track members who were available were at the board meeting, along with their coaches, to be recognized. Congratulations!

The USD 108 FFA Chapter has been on fire this spring! At the June BOE meeting, members with a variety of awards were honored. Pictured are just 3 of the large group of 14 FFA members who earned honors at the recent state FFA conference in Manhattan. USD 108 is so proud of these students!

With track season coming to a close we are pleased with this year's progress and performances and excited for the future of Tiger track. There were a lot of pr's significantly improved over the season due to hard work and dedication by the athletes. We lose 6 seniors to graduation. Layla worked hard this season on her hurdle technique and competed very well, she even tried pole vault and one meet and did well. Brody put in a lot of miles this year and was consistent in the 1600 and tried the 800 and ran a solid 800 as well. Lucas was focused this year and really improved his 800 time as well as improving his long jump distance. Tucker was solid in the sprints and helped the 4x1 improve its time during the season as well. Alyssa really came on the last two years and was a force to be reconned with!! She steadily improved both of her sprints as the season progressed and ended just 1/2" from breaking the school record in the long jump. She was also a big part of the 4x1 that broke the school record. Alyssa ended the season with a heartbreaking hamstring injury at regionals. She rehabbed all week before state and was able to compete at state, but only at 75%. Excited to see what she can do for Cloud County Thunderbirds next year. Gavyn also put in a lot of hard work this season, especially in javelin. He worked really hard on his javelin technique and it showed. Gavyn improved his pr significantly and had the number two javelin throw in 2A!! The leadership of these seniors will be missed. Alyssa and Gavyn represented WCHS well at state.


Since day two state track didn't end until midnight, here are the day two results.
Anna placed 4th in the 100 hurdles and 3rd in the 300 hurdles.
Tanner has been battling injury and finished in 17th in triple jump.
Macie threw javelin and finished 12th.
Emerson also threw javelin and finished 13th.
Alyssa showed some grit and finished 15th in long jump and 17th in the 100.
Gavyn finished the day off with the longest javelin competition of his career with a 6th place medal.

Another state medalist! Gavyn was scheduled to throw javelin at 6:15 on Friday. All javelin was running behind and then weather came in so they rescheduled it for today at 5:00. Gavyn warmed up and then entered a series of lightning delays that found him throwing his final throws at about 11:00. He stayed focused and earned 6th place with a throw of 171'2".


We have another state medalist. Anna gutted it out and came from behind to get third in the 300 hurdles!! Way to stick with it Anna and bring home another medal!!
