Dear WCS Family & Supporters,

What an exciting summer we have had on the WCS campus! 

Our construction team, Imperial Construction led by our very own WCS Dad, Holger Kelley has been working diligently on our new education space. We are looking forward to being handed keys the first week in August to this new amazing space! 

We are all anxiously awaiting the beginning of the construction of the gorgeous WCS chapel. Due to a construction setback, the start date of our beautiful chapel is now August. Our prayer is that once construction begins it will move quickly.  We cannot wait to have a dedicated space for our school family to come together and worship.

God is blessing us with so many new students giving us the opportunity to share His love with them daily while providing excellent Christian education.  Our growth has been unprecedented with an average of a  25% increase each year for the past 3 years. As we prepare for the coming school year, we are already experiencing a wait list in many grades. 

As you know, facilities are our number one priority in addressing this astronomical amount of growth. The education space that is in process was necessary just to accommodate our current needs. This new building did not address the stress we are feeling in the lack of cafeteria or gym space. We are desperate for gym space as we have to rent various other gyms around town to give each team the adequate space needed for practice, and games.

Many of you have asked what is the plan for addressing the need for more cafeteria and gym space. The plan is as follows; first, the current education space that is under construction must be fully funded.   The total payoff of this note is 1 million dollars. Secondly,once this space is fully funded we will immediately begin a campaign to raise funds for a cafeteria/gymnasium. Once we have paid off the entire note for the new education space, and have raised half of the money needed for the gymnasium/cafeteria we can begin construction.  A preliminary number for this space is 2.6 million for the gymnasium, and an additional 1.5 million for the cafeteria.

If you or anyone you know would like to discuss the possibility of coming alongside WCS to make this much needed dream a reality please feel free to reach out to Courtney McKeown at courtney.mckeown@wcslions.org.  I will be happy to sit down with you or someone you may know to show you detailed plans for our future growth.  

Thank you for your continued support of Weatherford Christian School. We are so blessed to have incredible donors who understand, and support our mission at WCS.
