Each month, Kindergarten students spend a day at Frick Park Environmental Center. These visits foster

a curiosity and respect for nature,

create comfort in—and excitement for—the outdoors, and provide opportunities to learn about plants and animals in the local environment.

As part of City as Our Campus, Lee and Earl Dingus told creation stories about their tribe and shared their

experiences as Indigenous people

to the seventh-grade social studies classes.

Ninth- and tenth-grade students

reconnected and forged new bonds

as they learned about the traditions and expectations of the Upper School during day-long retreats at Camp Guyasuta.

As part of the grade 9 Health, Wellness, and Physical Education Seminar, students participated in team-building activities designed to help them

overcome challenges in themselves, their communities, and the world.

Across all four divisions, students participated in learning experiences to celebrate Hispanic Heritage month and Latinx voices. The fourth-grade bulletin board display reflects the students’ understanding of the extensive influence that

Hispanic culture

has on our country.

Middle School students participate in advisory competitions throughout the school year in order to build community and promote school spirit. As part of the inaugural advisory competition, students

designed mascots

for their advisory.

With internal demolition complete (and more than 300 items donated to Construction Junction for reuse), the Joan Clark Davis Center for Interdisciplinary Learning is taking shape to transform the educational experience at WT and to

reinforce the school’s commitment

to the broader community.
