💗 WYWLA went PINK! 💗 In honor of Breast Cancer Awareness Month, our girls and staff showed their support by wearing pink and helping spread awareness for an important cause. 🎀

As we head into the weekend, we wish everyone and their families a fun, festive, and safe weekend filled with plenty of treats and great memories! 👻🎃

Stay safe and have fun!

WYWLA Student Government Association is calling on our school community to come together for a great cause!

From November 1–20, we’re hosting a Food Drive benefiting the Food Bank of Central and Eastern North Carolina. From canned goods and pasta to cereal, hygiene products, and cleaning supplies, every donation helps make a difference for families in our community.

And there’s a little something in it for everyone! 👀 If we reach 600 or more donated items, our entire school will earn a COZY DAY!

Let’s show what happens when leadership meets service. Every item counts, every contribution matters, and together we can make an impact!

🎉🦉 Celebrating school spirit, leadership, and community! 💙💛

Last week we loved joining Governor Morehead School for their Homecoming Parade! 🎊 There’s something special about celebrating one another, building meaningful partnerships, and showing what’s possible when we come together.

Collaboration is more than sharing a campus—it’s about building relationships, supporting one another, and creating a community where everyone can thrive. We’re grateful to share a campus with Governor Morehead School and proud to celebrate alongside them! 🤝✨

Different communities, one campus, stronger together! 💙

Today we had the pleasure of taking our 8th graders to visit and tour Shaw University, our college partner! It was such a delightful experience to witness our seniors pour into the 8th graders as they prepare for high school. The future looks BRIGHT for class of 2031! 🎉💙💛

Hello WYWLA! We are celebrating International Day of the Girl on October 8, and we’re looking for amazing women to pour into our girls as guest speakers and session leaders! We’ve had a few folks back out but we know our community always shows up! We’re seeking women from all walks of life to lead short, engaging conversations around leadership, careers, confidence, wellness, STEM, entrepreneurship, financial literacy, finding your voice, overcoming challenges, or simply what you wish someone had told YOU at their age.
💛You don’t have to be a professional speaker.
💛You don’t have to stay all day.
💛Your story and experience are enough.
Interested in joining us or know an amazing woman our girls should meet?

We’ve had and are looking for all types of presenters from realtors, investors, educators, doctors, lawyers, nurses, pharmacists, cosmetologists, entrepreneurs and so much more! Email me for questions, mwalker4 @ wcpss.net!
