HAWK TALK

September 16-20

Dear WCA families,

This week has been WCA at our finest.

Staff, students, and PTF came together to create STEAM Week, focusing on "God's Creation". Students shared their STEAM projects with parents and grandparents. We had a record setting Book Fair with Bedford Falls. WCA athletes competed in six sporting events and represented WCA well. The class of 2028, our first freshman class, held their first Freshman Friday, and in the midst of it all, we had a miraculous move into the long anticipated Annex.

We are grateful for God's blessings over it all and thank you for being part of this exciting season at WCA.

It is a privilege to serve you.

Blessings,

Mrs. Keen
