Wednesday, December 4th 2024-Orange Day

 The WWSSC football co-op has and will continue to look for ways to improve the program for the future. School Board and administrative representatives from all 3 schools met and decided that one way to improve is to rebrand the co-op with a new mascot. This will give the WWSSC co-op its own identity instead of having the same mascot as SCW. This would also be the best time to make a change as it’s the year we order new uniforms.  The colors of the co-op will remain the same and students from each school will have an opportunity to help rebrand.  Administration will work with their 7-12 student body to come up with the top mascot idea from each school with a deadline of December 16.  Then we will have a vote with the top 3 mascot ideas with all schools voting to decide on what mascot best represents our co-op.  The timeline is very short and we would like to have everything decided by the Holiday Break.
