Congratulations to Ben Brake, Class of 2020, on receiving the Timothy P. O'Shaughnessy Foundation's Lifelong Learning Scholarship!
The Foundation and scholarship were created in memory of Timothy O’Shaughnessy, a Wichita native and member of the WCS Class of 2002, whose passion for life and learning took him to universities in China to become fluent in Mandarin, to remote South America to work at a start-up oil company, to master sailing, and even to become a pilot. Sadly, Timothy passed away in August of 2016.
Congratulations to the 13 WCS students selected to the South-Central KMEA All-District band and orchestra!
WCS had a great showing at the Emporia State Math Day, with the algebra team taking first place and several other strong results!
Congratulations to freshman Cj Meyer and sophomore Tyler Gwyn who ran personal best times at the State Cross Country meet!
Early Childhood Head Becky O'Hearn was recently honored by the Wichita Business Journal as one of the outstanding "Women Who Lead" in education.
