The 6th graders have been working hard on their Passion projects and have spent the last several weeks presenting to their classmates during counseling time. We have some very knowledgeable and talented students at WCES that shared with us what they are passionate about! It was a fun project to finish out 6th grade counseling! (part 2)

Hello Tigers,

Check out this week's newsletter. It's hard to believe we only have 2.5 weeks left of school. Please make sure to be checking PowerSchool for students' grades and be encouraging your child to reach out to teachers if they are concerned.

Encourage Rest, Hydration, and Healthy Eating Habits to help students finish the school year strong.

Have a great week!

Your WCHS lady Tigers track team also traveled to the Beloit Relays today. The lady Tigers seemed to have come with a chip on their shoulders and ready to compete. Setting pr's for the girls were; Alyssa in the 100, Amaya in long jump, Emerson in javelin, Anna in the 100 hurdles, Momo in the 100 and 100 hurdles, and the 4x100 relay team of Macie, Momo, Anna, and Alyssa. All of the girls contributed and they pulled together to win the lower division team title. Love to see these ladies working hard and improving!! https://milesplit.live/meets/731884/schedule

The WCHS Tiger boys track team made the trek to the Beloit Relays today. The weather was good and the boys took full advantage of it. There were a number of pr's today; Tanner in the long jump and javelin, Lucas in the 800, Chris in the 400, Witt in pole vault, Chayse in long jump, and Gavyn had a monster pr in javelin. Gavyn upped his pr by over 10', throwing 183'8"!!! The boys are improving with every meet. Keep up the good work!!
