WCHS Baseball Opening Day!
Break-O-Day students recently got an up close look at the stars & planets as part of their related arts rotation. Inside the portable planetarium, they heard stories surrounding a few of the most well known constellations, zoomed in on planets in our solar system and even moved forward in time to study moon phases. Everyone had a great time exploring the universe together!
JCPL Activities for April 2025
Whiteland Jazz Band One absolutely killed it at ISSMA Jazz State Finals Friday night. They all played so well and with LOVE for the music!!! So proud of our trumpets for being awarded Best Trumpet Section at State Finals!!!
But I am also incredibly proud of our two bass players tonight! Sadly our talented senior bassist wasn’t able to perform with us tonight due to a mission trip and so our FRESHMAN and SOPHOMORE bassists from our Jazz 2 and 3 learned the charts in 4 rehearsals. They worked their tails off and I am both massively impressed and incredibly thankful for their dedication to our program and their bandmates.
It has been a night to remember!!!!
