Our 3rd graders were beaming with pride as they listened to the Chautauqua Institution Young Playwrights read their plays aloud to the group. Students have been learning about the play writing process and scripting their own plays as a part of this memorable program. Great job students!
Looks like our middle school students had some fun at Friday's activity night! Thank you Student Government!

Middle School Activity Night
This Friday from 6-8
Join us here at WACS on Monday, March 21, 2022, as we wear our colorful, fun, mismatched socks to raise awareness for and celebrate the inclusion of people we know and love with Down syndrome!
Every year, on March 21st, people all around the world come together to celebrate World Down Syndrome Day by wearing brightly colored, mismatched socks. March 21st (3/21) is symbolic because people with Down syndrome have 3 copies of their 21st chromosome.Socks were chosen because the karyotype of Down syndrome chromosomes actually looks
like mismatched socks!
Tomorrow's engineers are in our classrooms today!
Our third graders worked together to design bridges using only two pieces of paper on a frame of stacked books. Their goal was to support the greatest amount of weight, which was measured in washers. Students worked together to cut, roll, fold, and balance their papers to maximize the supporting forces, keeping all other variables constant. They measured, tested, and evaluated their plans to come up with the incredible designs that you see here as a part of their Mystery Science Balanced Forces & Engineering unit.
We applaud their problem solving, grit, and teamwork!
We can't think of a better way to celebrate 3.14, Pi Day, than with an Inaugural School Team Challenge sponsored by SUNY Fredonia’s Department of Mathematical Sciences! The students pictured here calculated a plan based on the required components for this mathematical Pi Day competition. They submitted the video linked below at 3:14am today and are anxiously awaiting the results. We will share those when they are announced by the college.
In the meantime, please enjoy some math humor from our students.
