Congratulations to Leigh Garth on receiving the High Five Award.
Awarded to Leigh Garth from the Cafeteria Staff. Here is what the Cafeteria Staff had to say about Leigh:
"We a lunch room all 100% agree that the High Five Award should go to Leigh Garth. We feel like Leigh represents what the White County Central School District hold dear-faith, family, community, kindness, friendship, love, and affection.
Leigh has been a sounding board for Karen and I. She has taken time to help us with whatever is needed whether it be running the computer, helping serve, teaching computer stuff, listening to our gripes, and sharing a few belly laughs. Leigh has our entire staff's back to the point of taking our slights and applause to heart.
Leigh greets us all on a daily with a kind word and smile. She personifies commitment and strength. She lends an ear or a shouilder to anyone and everyone who needs one. She is also down for just about any prank and laughs at all silly jokes.
Leigh loves this school, the kids, and all the staff. She is prayerful and praiseful for us all. She is mindful of her job and hardworking. To sum it up, we in the lunch rooom think Leigh Garth is the bomb! Love, Karen, Kara, Deleta, Amy, Ashaley, Angela, Crystal, Alex and Tamera...AKA The Lunch Bunch"
Thank you, Leigh Garth, for your service to WCC!

The Baseball game has been rescheduled until tomorrow (Friday) at 4:00 @ Tuckerman!

Anyone coming to school from the south needs to be aware that water is over the road in a low spot on Highway 157. This is just before the flashing school sign near Edwards Rd. Please slow down before hitting this water for your safety.

3rd-6th Grades will be taking the ACT Aspire Assessment tomorrow and Thursday. Please make sure your students get a good night's rest and are at school on time. If a student comes in late, they will have to wait in the office, until the test being given is complete. They can then join their class for the next test. Also, encourage them to eat breakfast. If your student is virtual, we will call when they are finished testing for the day. You can expect them to finish between 11:00 and 12:00.

White County Central is starting grades 7-12 Interscholastic Soccer next year. Since this will be a brand new sport for our district our soccer account will start at $0.00. We would use this account to get equipment, attire, or assist a player who would be unable to get their own equipment. If you would be interested in donating to the Soccer Team, please see our Admin office with donations. Thank you and we are excited for this new opportunity for our students. The AAA Soccer Team starts in the 2021/2022 school year, but if your child is interested in learning the game and developing their skills contact Mark Wagner mwagner@wccsd.k12.ar.us.

Baseball boys play their game in the district tournament tonight at 6:00 against Midland @ Tuckerman! Come out and show your support for these boys! ⚾️

High Five Award!
Awarded to the Cafeteria Staff from Charlotte Harrison. Here is what Ms. Charlotte has to say about the Cafeteria Staff:
"I would like to give the high five award to the Cafeteria Staff. During the time of the pandemic and this school year, they have been extremely flexible and organized to be able to distribute meals to meet the needs at that time. They have tirelessly planned and strategically prepared lunches for bus delivery and classroom distribution. They also give additional effort for extracurricular events, such as the senior dinner with the superintendent. They take time to know each child and greet them daily with a hug and a smile. Thank you Karen and crew for all you do! "

"This High Five Award goes to Ms. Charlotte! Ms. Charlotte demonstrates her commitment and pride for our school in the way she diligently cares for our facilities. In turn, the way she (and her team!) care for our facilities directly impacts the way the school day runs for everyone. This includes everyone from students, to faculty and staff, to parents and guests that enter our buildings. I always enjoy my conversations with Ms. Charlotte and hope she knows just how appreciated she is for everything she does that is seen and everything that goes unseen.

"This high five award goes to Mrs. Donitzen. She goes above and beyond to make sure her students feel loved and supported. She can frequently be seen spending her free time cheering for students at sporting events, chess tournaments, spelling bee, or just in general. Her love and excitement for learning spills over into all that she does, and gets her students excited about learning. Her commitment to learning can only be surpassed by her genuine love for her students."
