WCA's Winter Showcase Music and Market Magic ✨🎵

Our students dazzled audiences with their musical talents at the showcase, while their entrepreneurial spirit shone through at the student-led Kriskindlmarket. Both events were a resounding success, bringing joy and festive cheer to our community. We're incredibly proud of our students' accomplishments and the unforgettable experiences they created! We are incredibly grateful to Ms. Doria for her exceptional talent and dedication in fostering a love for music among our WCA students.

8th Grade Cheerleaders

We honored our dedicated 8th grade cheerleaders who have passionately supported WCA sports teams for years! Many of these spirited students have cheered since 5th grade, bringing energy, enthusiasm, and school pride to every game. Their commitment to teamwork is truly inspiring, and we're grateful for their lasting impact on our school's spirit and tradition. Congratulations to our 8th grade cheerleaders!!

8th Grade Boys Basketball

Our 8th grade boys basketball team has shown remarkable skill, perseverance, and sportsmanship throughout their WCA careers. These young athletes have grown into talented players, learning valuable lessons about teamwork, discipline, and friendship. We honor their dedication to the game and the memories they've created on and off the court. Congratulations to our graduating basketball stars on an outstanding season!!

WCA 24-HOUR WORLD TOUR: APPLICATIONS COMING AFTER WINTER BREAK!

Our first 24-Hour World Tour – where middle school students will video conference with people from around the world – is just a few months away! Sixth, seventh and eighth grade student applications will be available in January. Students should be prepared to explain how they will benefit from participating, how the event will prepare them for high school, and how they will make the event better for others. This will be fun, but will also be a lot of work and a test of mental endurance. It should be an experience they will always remember!

Student Talent

Check out these one-of-a-kind Grinch sneakers, hand-painted by our talented 8th grader Palmer! Ms. Berner might just be sporting these festive, custom shoes this holiday season. Keep your eyes peeled—you never know when you'll spot Palmer's artistic masterpiece on Ms. Berner's feet!
