Father-Daughter Dance

WCA Dad's, hope you're getting your dancing shoes ready because our annual Father-Daughter Dance is coming up on Saturday, February 8th.    All WCA dads and daughters, PreK through 12th, are invited and encouraged to attend.

Tickets are $10 each, not to exceed $30 per family.  Registration forms are available by following this link - Father-Daughter Dance 2020 Registration.  Follow this link for an information sheet that can help you as you make your plans for this special night.

For this event, the gym is beautifully transformed to honor this special evening.  However, this transformation takes many hands to accomplish.  If you are able to volunteer to help with decorating, craft table, food or takedown, please follow this link to sign up - Father Daughter Dance 2020 Volunteer Sign Up

Field Day Planning

It may seem early, but parent volunteers are busy planning for Field Day 2020.  This year's event is scheduled for Friday, April 24th - so, mark your calendars! 

Many hands are needed to ensure that this day runs smoothly for our student body.  If you can volunteer for this fun in the sun, please contact Elizabeth Clement, ehclement@gmail.com.  Thank you for being forward-thinking and signing up to help!

As we go through our days, please remember to keep the following WCA families in your prayers. Also, please email Tami Butts (tbutts@wcalions.org) with updated and/or new prayer requests.  It is an honor to pray for each other.

  • Please be in prayer for the Kreiger family as they are walking through Anderson's (11th grade) recurrence of leukemia.  The big news for this week is that Anderson is at home.  His counts have recovered enough so that the doctors were comfortable releasing him.  His treatment plan will evolve in the coming days and weeks and will ultimately include a bone marrow transplant.  Please be in prayer that the right donor will be available to facilitate Anderson's healing.  Sally (Teacher, 1st Grade) is posting updates and immediate prayer concerns through the Caring Bridge website.  Anyone wishing to support the Kriegers during this time, please contact 1st-grade parent, Heather Watson - sassyheather@gmail.com - who is coordinating efforts.  Additionally, if you would like to support the Krieger's by providing them a meal, please sign up by following this link - Krieger Meal Sign Up.  Thank you for keeping Sally, Jon, Anderson and Ian (WCA Class of 2018) in your prayers. 
  • Please continue to pray for our art teacher, Jackie Kirsche, as she walks through her cancer recurrence.  Jackie is currently undergoing chemotherapy treatments and the wonderful news is that recent test results indicate that the treatments are being effective against her cancer.  Specific prayer requests are that these chemotherapy drugs will continue to prove effective against her cancer, that her side effects will be minimized and that her immune system will be protected during this time of year when germs are so easily shared.  Thank you for remembering Jackie, her husband Kevin and children Berkley (class of 2013), Sierra (class of 2016) and Hadley (class of 2018).
  • Please be in continued prayer for Kim Hardwick, WCA teacher, who has undergone treatment for recurrent melanoma.  Kim's December scans showed no sign of disease.  This is a huge praise and answer to prayers!  Thank you for remembering her husband, Steve and their children (Ben - Class of 2018, Anna - 11th, Cary - 8th and Ella - 6th) during this time. Kim has set up a caring bridge site where she can share information about her journey.

Prayer requests are included here at the request, or with the permission of the family.
