One Heart, One Mind, One Purpose...Philippians 2:2

F R O M T H E A D M I N I S T R A T I O N

Several years ago a best selling book was written calledGood to Great which talked about how organizations,such as our school, transition from being an average schoolto a great one. One key discipline from this book was thatgreat organizations focus on making sure they have theright “who, driving where they want to go.” 

For the past two years in the absence of a Head of School,WCCS was blessed with a transitional leadership teamheaded by Sandi Jolly, Educational Administrator, andJohn Gabrenas, Operational Administrator. They did anoutstanding job of keeping their hands on the rudder todirect WCCS forward. They never lost sight of our missionto “partner with Christian parents, to provide an excellent,Christ-centered education” in the challenging seas a Christianschool has to navigate.

During an extensive search, the board continued toprayerfully focus on seeking God’s will to reveal the right“who” for WCCS, and the Lord directed us to Ray Caseyas our new Head of School. Recognizing WCCS has beenblessed with Ray as the right “who” to drive, the boardwill continue to move toward partnering with the school community to make sure we refine “where we are going.” 

This direction will continue to be developed with several key initiatives outlined in our on-going Strategic Plan. Two of thecornerstone principles from this plan will be making Christ preeminent in all we do at WCCS, and educating our studentsto achieve God’s calling for each of their lives.

Proverbs 22:6 states, “Train a child in the way he should go, and when he is old he will not turn from it”. As WCCS continuesto move toward being the great school God wants for our community, we ask for your continued prayerful partnership.

On behalf of the Board of Trustees, we thank you for your financial support, talents, time, and dedication to committing toan education that will last a lifetime. We have been entrusted with much and understand the great responsibility to partnerwith you in the eternal education of your children.

In Christ,

WCCS Board of Trustees

Train a child in the way he should go, and when he is old he will not turn from it...Proverbs 22:6
