College Night: Thank you to those who attended College Night! It was a successful event with a lot of attendees and interesting materials. Please check back on the wc-fe.org website for materials from the breakouts sessions.

Coffee with the Principal: Principal McMeekin is starting a monthly series to meet with parents over coffee. It’ll be on the first Fridays of the month, starting this Friday, October 6, 8:45-9:15 AM, in the cafeteria.

Senior Families: Please join us for a Class of 2024 family meeting in the cafeteria on October 12th from 6-7pm. We will be providing information on senior year events, caps and gowns, yearbooks, and more! Want to be involved in your student’s final year? We need your help! Volunteers, funds, and more. Sign up here: https://wc-fe.org/senior-parents-help-needed/ 

WCFE Parent Mixer: Hey WC Community! The first parent get-together of the year is on Thursday, Oct. 5th, 5:30 - 7:30 PM at Sac Yard Community Taphouse, 1725 33rd St.

This is a kid- and dog-friendly outdoor venue with live music, great beer, a food truck and a chill vibe. We’ll provide light munchies – drinks and heartier fare available for purchase. Questions? Comments? Wanna confirm it’s still happening when the day arrives? Contact Diana Williams Corless, at membership@wc-fe.org. Looking forward to seeing you there!

We want your Feedback: So far, our parent involvement survey has yielded 23 responses. Thank you to those who responded! Given the student body is ~880 students, we are hoping for a lot more survey results, so the Foundation can serve our families better. Please complete the survey here. Questions about the survey? Please contact Diana Williams Corless at membership@wc-fe.org
