WSE Warriors
Warriors!!! For 6 weeks, 71 students have been training for the 12th annual Warriors 5K triathlon and tonight they all completed their mission! This program teaches safety and good form for all the activities and even teaches some students how to ride a bike and swim! They all build confidence that they can do hard things. This is no easy task and they did great! Nine warriors were 3x participants (3rd-5th grade) and tonight was special in that they all wore teal wristbands to honor one of their teammates whose mom recently passed away from cancer.

Field Trip & School Event Parking
PLEASE park at the Middle School if you are attending a field trip or an event at WSE. This will ensure that we can have a normal dismissal. We have many upcoming events and we would like to avoid any added craziness at the end of each day.
