Congratulations to our Winners of the 2018 WCHE Turkey Feather Contest!
Thanks to your generous donations, at the rate of 25 cents each, our Student Council raised almost $600 to go toward the purchase of playground equipment for our school.
Pictured above, left to right, are: Mrs. Hicks, our winner in 5th Grade; Mrs. Johnson, our winner in 2nd Grade, and Mrs. Crump, our winner in 4th Grade.
Pictured below, left to right, are: Mrs. Doering, our winner in Kindergarten, Ms. Eskridge, our 3rd Grade winner, and our winner in 1st Grade is Mrs. Gordon.
The teachers from each grade with the most turkey feather donations "won" the opportunity to dress like a turkey for our student assembly.

WCHE Spirit Wear Store is Open for Business!

The Wall of Fame for Shoe Tying for Kindergarten, 1st, and 2nd Graders
Once notified of the student's successful shoe-tying accomplishment, we will provide your student with a paper shoe to color, take the student's photo, and then post the photo and customized paper shoe on our WALL OF FAME FOR SHOE TYING!
It's going to be really exciting to see our young Tigers on the WALL OF FAME!
Brrrrrr! It's cold, and we may have all of your coats!
Our Lost & Found is running over with all manner of lovely sweaters, sweatshirts, and coats. We also have lots of water bottles, lunch boxes, and even eyeglasses.
If you are missing any of your worldly goods, please stop by and check our Lost & Found. It could well be that your missing items are here.
Play WCHE Book BINGO! Keep On Reading On, Tigers@
Instructions and a BINGO card were sent home with our learners. We also have Book BINGO information available here.
Happy reading, Tigers!
