CELEBRATIONS
Great things are happening at WCS!
We are so proud of our 5th grade and our Band & Chorus students who put on a lovely concert Tuesday night. The 5th grade sang a selection of spirituals, and the band showcased several students for solos! Thank you to all who made this fun event possible, and to the students whose practice and hard work was on full display!

HEALTHY HIGHLIGHTS
BATTLE OF THE BOOKS!
This week we hosted RSU 1’s 27th Annual Battle of the Books for WCS students and students in the surrounding area schools (Fisher Mitchell, Phippsburg, West Bath, Georgetown). The Battle of the Books is a game show style competition for students; they read as many of the Maine Student Book Award nominees as possible and then answer questions about these books. Some students read all of the 30+ books on the list! It takes many months to prepare for the Battle of the Books and hours of reading. 15 WCS students participated and did an outstanding job! A HUGE congratulations to the Battle of the Books champions: Paige Bowen, Mackenzie Capella, Willa Luchies and Finn Messina!
