WCSD Students Shine on TV

Did you catch our students and staff on the local news? NBC 26 featured a wonderful story about our special education students making a difference in the community through volunteering and learning life skills. It’s amazing to see their hard work and dedication recognized!

A huge thank-you to Mercedes Zabel and Nicole LeDioyt, 6-12+ Special Education Teachers, and their incredible team for creating and supporting these opportunities for our students. Their commitment to fostering local partnerships will have a lasting impact on both our students and the community.

There is so much to be proud of here at WCSD—our Wolves are truly making a difference! Be sure to check out the news segment at the link below, and stay tuned for more updates on the incredible achievements happening in our schools.
