SEMESTER IN REVIEW
AUGUST
The excitement of a new year mixed with the nostalgia of old traditions – what a great way to start off the 2017-18 WCS school year! Seniors gathered for one of their first “lasts” on Sunday, August 20, for the Senior Road Rally. The group embarked on a scavenger hunt then enjoyed some dinner together and with their parents before starting their final year at WCS. The next evening, new and returning families flooded the Bunny Hill Quad for the Annual Backto-School Ice Cream Social. The ice cream may have been melting quickly in the August humidity, but that couldn’t keep “The Blue Crew” and U.S. Dance Team from serving up yummy ice cream to hungry kids and parents! The Senior-Freshman Girls Breakfast helped some of our WCS Spartan Girls kick off their school year the morning of August 23. Girls gathered at Ellen and Esther ’18 Beren’s home to mix and mingle before heading off to their first day!

On a very sunny second day of classes, the entire campus got together for the first All-School Assembly of the year. Seniors walked younger classes over to the James Ockerman Amphitheatre and Mr. Davis welcomed the school to a great new year. The assembly concluded with everyone singing Dear Collegiate together. Spartan Night capped off our first week of the year with a preview of fall athletic teams, and all in attendance enjoyed dinner and a football scrimmage on a beautiful night!
