Leadership in action! Our Cal-Wheat Student Council Executive team spent the September 22 at the Tri-Rivers Conference Leadership Day. From sportsmanship and values-driving leadership workshops to mental health and mindfulness training, our team brought back lots of inspiration, new skills and great memories with student leaders from other conference schools. #GoWarriors
We are thrilled to begin highlighting our newest staff members! Keep an eye on our page over the next few weeks as we spotlight our new teachers and staff. Let’s give them a warm Warrior welcome!
