WCA 20 STRONG!

3rd Grade at Library.jpeg

Our 3rd Graders are 

STRONG in their 

LOVE FOR READING!


On September 10th, our 3rd graders visited the WCA library for the first time in over a year. Mrs. Jacob's class was so excited to be back that they entered the room, opened their books, and started reading right away. Our Media Specialist, Mrs. Worcester, said, "it was so quiet all I could hear was the beautiful sound of pages turning."

Thank you Mrs. Worcester for sharing this STRONG story! We would LOVE to hear your #wca20strong story. Email Jenn Harris at jharris@wcahawks.org.

STEAM DAY at WCA!

Thursday, October 14th


Discovery Place is coming to WCA to help our Hawks launch their inner Engineer with a DIY building experience.


Our JK and Kindergarten Engineers will learn about balance, gravity, and stability as they design their very own structures.

 

Our EC and 1st-8th grade Hawks will use the Engineering Design Process to make catapults. We all love to throw objects fast and far, but there is a limit to what we can do with our arms alone. That’s why ancient engineers created a machine called the catapult that could do better. The catapult stores energy as potential energy to be released all at once as kinetic energy, throwing a projectile much further than a human could alone.


STEAM Day at WCA will be a fun learning adventure for all grades! 

Home of the Good Shepherd Thank you.jpg

Thank You for a Wonderful 1st NUTS Day!


Last Monday was our very first NUTS Day of the 2021-22 school year. Together our Hawks raised $144.00 for the Home of the Good Shepherd in Kenya! That is a huge increase from last year. The ice cream cups were also a huge hit. Thank you to our Student Council for doing a fantastic job helping with the ice cream. And Thank you to everyone for your generous donations that help show the love of Christ to the orphaned children at the Home of the Good Shepherd. 


WCA NUTS Days are the last Monday of every month, so mark your calendar for our next NUTS Day on Monday, October 25th. Bring $1 donation for NUTS day and $1 to purchase ice cream during lunch.
