The Trap Team celebrated its seniors last weekend. Congratulations to Jaylin Rawleigh, Mattie Deusenbery, Zoey Snyder, Hailey Martin and Cole Snyder.

Trap Team Highlights from Saturday, May 9th: Carter Robords (tan sweatshirt) shot his first perfect 25 this week. This is a major accomplishment for a young trap shooter. As an individual score continues to build, so does the nervousness. The fear of missing a target builds in the back of the competitor's mind. It takes consistency, perfect practice, and mental focus to overcome those distractions. Awesome job Carter!

Lighting struck twice for Cole Snyder (blue shirt). Cole logged his second perfect 50 this week. Cole has meticulously developed his pre-shot routine and follows through to be successful. As such Cole is ranked #1 in his conference and in the top 10 trap shooters in the state.

Once again, the Timber Frame class is planning to raise the frame on Tuesday, May 19th. This year’s project will be built at The Vincent House and features a handicap-accessible design and pays homage to the history of The Vincent House. Although smaller than some of the projects in order to fit the space, it makes up for its size with intricate details in the roof system. If you stop by to observe the construction, please respect the appropriate privacy of The Vincent House. Please park in the lot across from the St. Joseph’s Church on Second Avenue and Freemont Street.

If you are interested in seeing the construction of the project, but are unable to attend at the site, please feel free to check out the livestream: https://www.youtube.com/@bigbeamstimberframes770/streams

Don't forget to stop into the art show on Tuesday!

Please remember to vote!

April’s family engagement day at Wayland-Cohocton Prekindergarten School was a fun one with reptiles and amphibians presented by Tanglewood Nature Center! It was a great educational event to wrap up the month. The time learning together was enjoyed by the students and their visiting family and friends. And really, is there anything more fun than frogs, lizards and toads?

With the success of last year's fundraiser, Wayland-Cohocton was able to raise nearly $1.3k for CASA-Trinity, the local rehabilitation center. Once again, in honor of Alcohol Awareness Month, for the week of April 20th-24th, students and staff in the middle and high school will have the opportunity to complete laps on the indoor and outdoor track during their free time and gym classes to raise money. There will be pledge sheets located both in the main offices and in gym classes for students to take if they choose.

There will be t-shirts for sale throughout the week of April 13th-24th. All proceeds from the fundraiser and shirts will go to CASA-Trinity. ALL MONEY IS DUE APRIL 29TH and is to be turned into the Middle and High School Main Offices. T-shirts may be ordered by the community.

The goal is to either collect as much money as possible through direct checks/cash, or to ask people in the community to make donations per lap that you run/walk in order to spread awareness on alcohol addiction and its impact on our local community and society as a whole.

Any checks can be made out to WCCS Student Council

The top three students from the high school and the top three students from the middle school who complete the most laps/ and or raise the most money will receive a prize.

Prizes include free rounds of golf, a Salon 311 gift card, and a hoverboard.

Any questions, reach out to Naava Gibson at gibsonn@students.wccsk12.org.
