We hope everyone had a great Christmas holiday! Please join me in reflecting on our wonderful Christmas celebrations here at WCA. We had a beautiful choral program led by Mrs. Francis and the Middle Schoolers entertained us with some great skits. In addition, most of our classes completed a service project to bless others during the holiday season.Thank you to our teachers and parent volunteers for teaching the real meaning of Christmas. The projects are listed below:
- JK & Kindergarten: Collected comfort items such as new pajamas, stuffed animals, hats, gloves, & bibles for 'Least of These Carolinas' - a Christian nonprofit organization that sponsors and supports foster kids & families around the Carolinas.
- EC: Collected toothbrushes, toothpaste and individual toiletry items to make “personal care bags” for the homeless shelter.
- 1st Grade: Collected Socks, Gloves, and Hats for the Union County Christmas Bureau.
- 2nd Grade: Wrote Christmas cards and collected donations for White Oak Retirement residents.They hand delivered their cards on Friday, 12/21 and visited with the residents and also sang Christmas carols.
- 3rd Grade: Collected household items for the families who live on the One7 campus in Charlotte. The kids also made gift tags to go on the bags of supplies and prayed over the bags for the families who will receive them.
- 4th Grade: Mission project coming up in February!
- 5th Grade: Made Christmas cards for their Caring Hearts friends and went caroling at Brookdale Assisted Living facility.
- Middle School: Middle School took down Fall decorations and helped set up Christmas decor at Hunter Farms on November 20th. On December 20th, the Middle School made Christmas cards for the residents at White Oak nursing home.
