You’re Invited to “A Night on Broadway” ~ February 9 Mark your calendars for a lovely evening including dinner and entertainment compliments of the Grades 8-HS Vocal Music department. Students will be serving a spaghetti dinner and entertaining the audience with popular Broadway show tunes. The menu will include spaghetti, salad, garlic bread, and dessert. Ticket prices are $8/person with children 3 and under admitted free. Proceeds will benefit the music department. Collecting Pennies for Patients Each year in 26,000 schools across the country, kids are learning about service, leadership, philanthropy and the power of spare change. Our school is among the 26,000. Students in Grades K-12 will be collecting “Pennies for Patients” from Feb. 6-24. Students will be given an individual collection box and class totals will be tracked. The F.O.R. board and organization are planning several activities during the fundraising campaign. Proceeds from the collection will go to the Lukemia & Lymphoma Society to help fund blood cancer research and patient aid. Please help us make a big impact with your small change. Picture This! A 55” LCD HDTV -- You Could Win It! The WCHS Senior Class is sponsoring a fundraiser giving you the opportunity to win a 55” Vizio 1080p LCD HDTV. For a donation of $5 to the senior class, you will receive a ticket to be placed in a drawing. Better yet … for a donation of $20 to the class, you will receive 5 tickets for the drawing. Tickets are available from any member of the senior class. The drawing will be held on Friday, February 17, between the girls and boys varsity basketball games in the WCHS gym. You do not need to be present to win. Good Luck! Book Fair Opening Soon!

Do you prefer to shop online? Never fear! Scholastic offers online shopping, too! You may purchase books using the Scholastic website. Online shopping offers an expanded book selection and provides the opportunity for you and your child to create wish lists that can be sent to out-of-town family and friends who might want to support our book fair. You may purchase online February 13-27. There is a link to our school Scholastic Book Fair on our school’s website. You can find the link on our school home page (www.wchuskies.com) just below the scrolling marquee. All purchases, either at school or online, count toward our book reward program and will help us add new books to our library. More kids reading and kids reading more is our ultimate goal.
