Letter from the Principal

Mrs. Alexus Leebrick

Dear WCA Lower School Families,

What a wonderful week it has been in Lower School! We are so grateful for the opportunities and fresh perspectives that STEAM Week brings into the lives of our students each year.

We kicked off the week with an in-house field trip, exploring the fascinating worlds of science and engineering. Our students delved into topics such as sustainability, renewable resources, and the design process...

Thank you for partnering with us to make STEAM Week a memorable and meaningful experience for our Lower School learners!
