Ms. Pittman's 8th-grade students finished reading " The Monkey's Paw" by W. W. Jacobs and watching the short film clip of it as well. The students have been tasked with the job of working at a marketing firm and creating a campaign to sell a toy: A Monkey's Paw. The students had to create a poster with instructions and precautions for using the paw, which grants 3 wishes.

WCTC appreciates our boss every day, but doubly more on Boss's Day! Mrs. Veronica Helms wears many hats, but the one we love the most is having her as OUR "Ring Leader" of the Winona Career and Technical Center! She leads by example... She not only talks the talk, but she walks the walk... No one could lead us better! Happy Boss's Day, Mrs. Veronica Helms! #WCTCthePlacetobe
Show your Homecoming Spirit!

Mrs. Milling's Computer Science and Engineering classes are studying Newton's Laws. When students fly paper airplanes, they are showing Newton’s Three Laws of Motion in action. Newton’s First Law is seen because the airplane keeps moving until gravity and air resistance slow it down. Newton’s Second Law is shown because the harder a student throws the airplane, the faster and farther it goes. Newton’s Third Law happens when the student pushes the airplane forward and the airplane pushes back with an equal force.

Her smile and upbeat energy create a classroom culture where students feel safe, supported, and excited to learn. She models perseverance and positivity, inspiring both her students and her colleagues each day. Well done!
Mrs. Lindley has gone above and beyond this month, stepping in wherever she is needed across the building.

Her flexibility and dedication ensure that students get the support they need, and she does it all without a single complaint. She is a true asset to our school community. Well done!
