The Indian Marching Band is heading home with a third place finish at the Mt Pleasant Marching Band Invitational. I want to give these kids a MAJOR shoutout as they were the only 1A/2A band to perform their music memorized this evening. That is a huge step in helping us prepare for state festival.

Dear Wapello Community, as most of you know, Mike Simpson has been fighting stomach cancer for over two years. Unfortunately, last night, he succumbed to the disease. Please reach out to your loved ones at the school and in the community who loved Mike dearly and make sure they know you are there for them. At this time, services have not been set. But we will let you know when they are. Keep Mike and his family in your thoughts and your prayers as he was a beloved member of the WHS staff. WCS Administration and Staff
