Boys' Soccer Team. The WCA boys' soccer team may be small, but they are fierce and feisty young men who not only shed their blood, sweat, and occasionally tears, they put their heart and soul into every game. They work hard as a team and support each other through all the ups and downs that come with playing any team sport, especially soccer. The boys have come a long way this short season, and their coach could not be more proud of them for how hard they work and how much they've grown. They truly embody the spirit and character of WCA on and off the field, and they should be proud of themselves as well.

Notes from the Nurse
Vision & Hearing Screenings. During the week of September 24, students in grades K, 1, 2, 3, 5 and 7 will participate in these screenings. We will need your help! Watch for a sign-up genius. This is a great opportunity to get your volunteer hours in.
Healthy Sleep Habits. With the new school year starting, sometimes it can be hard to get out of the summer mode. For a successful school year, are you sending your child off to bed early enough? It might be tempting to think that your children can get by with less sleep than they need, or that they should be able to cope fairly well with a few skipped hours here and there. However, all children thrive on a regular bedtime routine. READ MORE
