As we enter the second half of the school year, our high school students face exciting changes and milestones. This period marks a pivotal time in their academic journey, filled with new opportunities, challenges, and important decisions.
Seniors: The Excitement of College Acceptances and Decisions
For our senior class, the beginning of the new year is filled with excitement and anticipation. Many have received college acceptance letters from top universities, a massive achievement and a testament to their hard work and determination. The next few months will be significant as they weigh their options and decide where to continue their education.
We encourage our seniors to pray about their decisions, visit college campuses a second (or third) time, and speak with current students about their experiences when making this life-changing decision.
Juniors: Preparing for College Testing and Applications
While seniors are wrapping up college applications and decisions, our juniors are entering full college preparation mode. WCS counselors work closely with juniors, helping them with test prep and planning for the college application season. While it may seem like a lot to think about as a junior, starting early is important—researching colleges, exploring potential career paths, and developing a strong academic profile. This proactive approach can help reduce the stress that often accompanies the application process in senior year. Counseling services provided include college fairs hosted on campus, college essay writing workshops, FASFA/ Scholarship Workshops, freshman symposiums, on-campus PSAT and ACT, college signing day, and more.
More Than Just Academics: Discovering Purpose and Impact
With 18 AP classes and the opportunity for dual enrollment courses, our students develop critical thinking, problem-solving, and time management skills that will serve them well in college and beyond. But that’s not the only accomplishment that sets WCS graduates apart.
At the heart of our high school experience is a deep commitment to helping students discover their God-given purpose. We work diligently to equip young people with the knowledge and wisdom to positively impact the world. Our teachers and staff strive to help students discover their unique gifts and identify future career possibilities that align with their faith and values.
