Senior Spotlight for 2025: Alex Benavides!


Each year, the Department of Education assigns letter grades to schools, and this year we are thrilled to announce that White County Central Elementary has earned an A grade, and White County Central High School has received a B grade from the Department of Education!
Two years ago, both of our campuses were rated a D. Today, we are proud to share that our latest grades reflect significant growth and progress. This transformation is a direct result of the dedication, resilience, and hard work of our students, educators, staff, and families. We are grateful for every effort that contributed to this achievement and remain committed to continuous improvement. Thank you to everyone who played a role in this success. Together, we are building a stronger future.
If you’re looking for a quality education, remember that the freedom of choice application period ends on May 1st. Don’t miss out—get those applications in and give your child the opportunity to be part of a school that is on the rise! WCC has reached new heights. Let’s keep moving forward!

Our cafeteria crew supporting Autism Awareness


WCC HS Chess Team had an unforgettable and intense State Chess Tournament at Little Rock Central High School!
Our High School Chess Team powered through severe weather and even a power outage—competing in two of their three rounds by emergency lights and natural window light—to earn a 3rd place in STATE!
I still need to capture a photo of the team with their trophy, because the other one is in the dark.
This group is dedicated, talented, and has been instrumental in growing our Chess program. This tournament will go down as one we’ll always remember.


Please contact your school nurse if you need paperwork sent home. All paperwork is due on Friday, April 11, 2025.


Here are a few of the WCC Golden Bears whose names were drawn to get a book from the book machine!
