Resource Drop-In Day!
STEM Knowledge!
Today in Mrs. Evans 6th Grade Science class, students dissected barn owl pellets looking for evidence for predator–prey relationships and ecosystems. “When kids dissect owl pellets, they can see and identify the tiny bones from that owl's meal and can learn about the owl's diet and position in a food web,” said Evans.
Students were challenged with identifying the origin of the bones located within it. This was a perfect culminating activity to wrap up 6th Grade Science Standard MS-LS2-3, which is learning about the Cycling of Matter and Flow of Energy in an Ecosystem.
On Track!
Potential National Merit Scholar candidates met for the Warrior On Track luncheon at WCHS Tuesday. Dr. Connie Poston and Interim Principal, Duke Lines spoke to the group to remind them about their scholarship potential and to encourage them to do well on the PSAT.
Meeting Students Needs!
CPCSC educators from across the district are participating in a three-day training focused on teaching content while also helping students develop academic and social language. This knowledge and strategies can have a positive impact on all students, especially our growing multilingual student population.
Congratulations Band Members!

Teen Round Table
Several members of the WCHS student council met in their monthly Round-Table discussion Friday. This month’s topic; School Safety. Students sat down with CPPD Chief, Chad Pryce along with Officers Talia Adkins and Shari Mullins as well as interim principal, Duke Lines.
Chief Pryce asked students about their confidence level, when it comes to safety, as well as for suggestions they might have to make the school day even safer. Members of the council talked about concerns they have while riding buses, passing in the hallways and in the transition area. The officers expressed the importance of being safe in the parking lot as well by not speeding and obeying traffic rules.
Takeaways from today’s session might include putting together a larger coalition that is tasked with coming up with a list of safety concerns for future discussions. “It’s important for us to meet with students, they need to be heard”, says Chief Pryce. “These young people see things every day in the building that we would never see because we’re simply not everywhere like they are”. Pryce says they’re a valuable resource that builds the safety structure which includes staff, students, parents and police. Some students weren’t aware of the hundreds of surveillance cameras the district has which are monitored throughout the school day.
Strike Up The Bands!
Tomorrow WCHS will be hosting the ISSMA Marching Band competition with 30 bands from across the state coming to perform. It is one of the largest events on our campus each year.
This event uses every single parking space and that means thousands of participants, spectators, trucks, buses, etc...
Your own Whiteland Marching Warriors perform at 8:30 PM and would love to hear you screaming in the stands for them! Tickets are $10 for adults and $7 for students.
Thanks so much for your support of this huge event and the WCHS Band!!!
