The joy, passion, commitment, and dedication of WCS students were on full display at Field Day today. WCS appreciates the partnership with Unified Champion Schools and the WCS Exceptional Children's Department for providing well-deserved moments of glory. Thank you to CES faculty for preparing a welcoming and inviting venue for today's competitions. Also, a big thanks to WCHS JROTC cadet volunteers, under the supervision of Sergeant Major Arnold, for leading the rotations. We could not have enjoyed today without the determination of the student athletes. Congratulations to all of today's participants!
