Hello WACO!
Due to predicted poor weather tomorrow, we are going to postpone the 3rd-6th grade relays. They will now be held at the secondary building on the afternoon of May 3rd. Our 6th grade students will still go for their visit tomorrow morning, but will come back and have a normal afternoon at school. Thank you
Soccer/Softball parking and admission change.
WACO is making a change to the admission location for Soccer and Softball games held at the high school. Due to the lack of adequate parking locations and safety concerns on the north side of the school building, there will no longer be an admission gate by the softball field. All admission to games played at the WACO Athletic Complex will be at the main ticket booth by the concession stand. This change allows for more handicap parking and more organized parking of other vehicles. We understand that this will increase walking for some, and hope to provide rides for people in need of assistance.
The WACO Relays have been cancelled for tonight (4/4). There is not make up date.
WACO Schools will be dismissing today, March 31st, at 1:15 pm. Have a safe afternoon.
We will be watching tomorrow's weather as the forecast has the potential for severe weather in the afternoon. Please stay alert for any messages we could send out about school dismissal. Our goal is to make sure we can get students home safely or wait until it is safe for travel. Thank you in advance for your patience.
Reminder: Elementary concert tonight at 5:30!
Just a reminder about our snow make up day next Friday, March 31st. We will have school that day to make up for the day we missed in February. Enjoy your weekend!
6th graders have been learning about how molecules behave in solids, liquids, and gases. What better way to learn about molecule behavior than to experiment with Oobleck, a mysterious substance from Dr. Seuss's Bartholomew and the Oobleck! The 6th graders tested the substance to determine if it is a solid or liquid, based on what they know about molecule behavior.

On February 17, substitute principal Mr. Kissell was a guest reader in nearly all of the elementary classrooms. He treated students to a ninja story and then gave everybody a free book. Thank you PTO for the books!
It was an exciting day of RAMM festivities! Mr. Kissell dropped by to read The Ninjabread Man and do our RAMM giveaway. Students also earned Ninja headbands (or ninja bows) for turning in RAMM slips!
