There will be a free COVID booster clinic set up in the auditorium today from 1:00-4:30. All are welcome to get their booster. It is the Pfizer booster.
Due to the devastating tornadoes that swept through the state last night, the school has lost electricity. We are unfortunately having to cancel the choir Christmas concert scheduled for tonight. We will update you of a possible time that it will be performed in the future. Please pray for those communities that lost lives and property last night.
Saturday school is postponed today due to power being out on campus.

We hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving break and we look forward to seeing you again tomorrow. ACHI did not release data for the week of Thanksgiving regarding COVID cases, so we will be using the newly adopted board policy for next week. The policy requires face coverings if we have 15 positive cases on campus. As of this evening, our latest case count is 7, so we will begin the week with face coverings being optional but recommended. We have had a slight uptick in positive cases over the past 2 weeks and have had to quarantine a much larger number due to possible exposure. Remember that the only way to prevent being quarantined if exposed, is to be vaccinated or not be within the 3' barrier of a positive case longer than 15 minutes over a 24 hour period. If our number ever reaches 15 cases then a message will be pushed out regarding a required face covering until the number drops below that threshold again. Thank you for your continued understanding and patience as we continue to deal with this pandemic.
WCC wants to wish everyone a happy and safe Thanksgiving break. School will not be in session again until Monday, November 29. As of right now, ACHI has us back into the RED zone for COVID. Due to this uptick, had we been in school next week, we would have re-imposed the face covering mandate for the week. ACHI is supposed to stop the data collection at some point. If/when that happens, the Board has enacted a policy that if we have 15 or more cases on campus then we will be masked for the week. We currently have 9 active cases. Hopefully the break will give some time for healing and lower our case number. We will send out a message next weekend to let you know of face covering status for the week of November 29.
Happy Thanksgiving!
