ACT prep in action! Our juniors and seniors spent the day sharpening their test-taking skills during an ACT Bootcamp with Jane Ross Tutoring and Dr. Ben Phillips. This all-day, high-intensity program covered all areas of the ACT while giving students a different way to look at the test, approach questions, and prepare for test day. A full day of ACT prep is no easy task, but investing the time now can open doors to more opportunities later. Thank you to Jane Ross Tutoring and Dr. Phillips for spending the day with our students! #SmallSchoolBigOpportunities #WCSSD #WestCarroll

Homecoming week is officially heating up! Last night, War Eagles gathered for our Homecoming Bonfire, and it was a great night of school spirit, friends, and Homecoming tradition.
Students and staff came together around the fire, our cheerleaders brought the energy, and we made a few more memories as we get closer to Friday night. Now let’s bring that War Eagle energy into the rest of Homecoming week!

The evening was made even more meaningful with Teacher Appreciation Night. Each volleyball player selected a teacher who has made a positive impact on them. It was a great reminder that behind so many student accomplishments are teachers who encourage, challenge, support, and believe in them along the way. Congratulations to our seniors, and thank you to the teachers who have helped make their West Carroll experience one to remember!

Our first Little Drummers Clinic was a hit! We welcomed 21 students in grades K-4 for an afternoon of music and fun. Our little drummers got to hear some of our West Carroll high school musicians demonstrate their instruments, then grabbed their own drumsticks and learned a song on bucket drums!
Now they’re ready to perform! Come see our Little Drummers at 6:30 PM on October 9, before our final home football game of the season.
We loved seeing our younger Eagles learning alongside our high school students and getting an early taste of what it’s like to be part of the West Carroll band program. Stay tuned for our next Little Drummers Clinic coming this spring!

👩‍🔬🧪What happens to matter when baking soda and vinegar react?

Fifth graders in Ms. Bloodworth’s science class put that question to the test. They measured the materials before and after the reaction, recorded their observations and used the results to see whether the total mass changed, even when a gas formed.

They also considered how to make their measurements more accurate.
Science in action: test, measure and think about what the evidence shows.
