#67 Jay Rogers
The War Eagle Football Family was especially honored to have Jay Rogers’ brother, Daniel Rogers, and nephew, Jay Cruz Rogers, join in painting the 67th mark in memory of Jay. Tonight, as our Eagles take the field, these maroon marks will serve as a reminder of those who came before them and the legacies that will always remain a part of West Carroll Football. Once an Eagle, always an Eagle.

Today, Mr. Jason Martin’s classes welcomed Staff Sergeant Edward Humphries and Private First-Class Emily Humphries of the Tennessee Army National Guard. Both are 2021 graduates of West Carroll, making their visit especially meaningful. The Humphries shared their experiences with the National Guard and spoke with students about the many opportunities available through service, including career training, education benefits, personal growth, and the chance to serve their community and country.
We always enjoy welcoming our former Eagles back to West Carroll, especially when they return to share their experiences and introduce our students to possibilities for their own futures. Thank you to Staff Sergeant and PFC Humphries for taking the time to invest in our students!

Chris encouraged students to be their best, set big goals, and keep moving forward. Through sharing his own journey, including the trials, failures, and lessons that ultimately contributed to his success, he reminded students that success comes from being better each day.
We are thankful for community members like Chris who are willing to invest their time in our students, share their experiences, and encourage them to think big about what their own futures can hold!

Today we're giving a shoutout to the lefties who make writing in spiral notebooks, using classroom scissors, and finding the "right" desk look easy.
Only about 1 in 10 people are left-handed, and lefties are in great company with names like Marie Curie, Leonardo da Vinci, and Babe Ruth.
We love the different strengths, talents, and personalities our students bring to school each day. Whether you write with your left hand or your right, we're glad you're part of our WC family.
Do you have a left-handed Eagle at home? Give them a shoutout in the comments today.
And, if you are left-handed, are you team rotate the paper or team hook the hand?
