On Friday, we had 24 students participate in the Model UN conference at WSU! Our students earned 5 awards for outstanding delegate, 6 position paper awards and 3 awards for honorable mention for outstanding delegate. Way to go Spartans! #SpartansThriveTogether #ModelUN
Our middle school students met on Friday for an assembly focused on celebrating the King Center's philosophy of "Our Beloved Community." This ties into their community impact initiative and their committment to do the work here in Wichita, our own beloved community. They started the assembly with a tribute to Mr. King's work and then welcomed "Mr. Wichita" Fayola Oyatayo to talk about the wonderful ways Wichita has supported him and how he now works to support Wichita! It was the perfect way to end the week! #SpartansLOVEWichita #SpartansThriveTogether
Whodunnit? Was it Mrs. White? In the faculty lounge? With the coffee pot? Oh wait, that is a different Mrs. White! Bravo to our Upper School students on their hilarious show, Clue!

What a weekend of state debate! WCS had the honor of hosting 4A and 3-2-1A State Debate this weekend, and each of our 14 competing students brought hardware to the halls as the weekend closed. All 4 of our 2-Speaker teams were in quarterfinals for the second consecutive year, and the Spartans sent a full slate to State Debate for the third consecutive year! Our 4-Speaker State Team, made up of Katherine Grace, Emma Mantovani, Satvik Kolla, Samuel Brittain, and alternates Cassilda Njeri and Sam Ngungiri finished with an 11-1 record and a State Runner-Up title! Junior Ayaan Parikh and Sophomore Will Meyer had a split decision in the final round, finishing as State Runners-Up in the 2-Speaker Tournament. Freshmen Hayan Raffi and Charlie Gentile closed out their weekend in semifinals, tying for 3rd in state!

Lower School PE is rocking and rolling these days. Or moreso, tying and rolling! They are in the middle of a fun unit that not only focuses on becoming EXPERTS at tying their shoes laces (10 seconds or less for a double knot!) but also learning the rules and techniques to bowling! The fun in the Lower School gym is palpable (and loud!😆) these days! #SpartansThriveTogether
