Washington Catholic High School &
Middle School News
Make a Difference
Our goal is to try to regularly fill
parents in on what is happening around
school. Until we find a catchy name,
we will just call it the “news”. We
hope to have this out to you at least bi-
weekly. Some items will be directed to
certain grades. For example, you will
find an article today addressed to
Senior Parents. We will always try to
find good news items to report.
2010 ACT Scores above State and
National Average
Mr. Adams has just received the 2010
ACT Graduating Class Profile Report.
This profile compares last year’s
graduates from Washington Catholic to
all those who took the test in the state
and nation. Many high schools in
Indiana encourage only their strongest
academic students to take the ACT,
sometimes inflating the scores. That
makes our graduates’ scores even better
than they seem. Six 2010 WC
graduates comprising 38% of the class
took the test, recording a composite
score of 25.1. The state average score
was 22.3 and the national score was
21.0. Congratulations to the Class of
2010 for scoring well above both the
state and national averages!
Attention Senior Parents
Each senior has a file folder in the high
school office. The seniors have been
shown these folders and where they are
located. Each folder contains important
college and scholarship information.
Mrs. Craney has asked Seniors to clean
out the folders and take the information
home to share with parents at least once
a week. Parents are welcome to come
to the office and look through the
folders at their convenience.
Also, please check out the guidance
page on wccardinals.org. It can be
found in the left column on the
Washington Catholic High School
home page. A complete list of Indiana
colleges and universities can be
accessed from the guidance home
page. The list contains direct links to
each college or university’s on-line
application and also scholarship
opportunities. We hope that this tool
will be very useful to seniors and
parents as they apply to college.
Sports Schedules on Line
Sports schedules can be found on the
school homepage. Athletic Director
Randy Pontius has been working hard
to verify dates and times. We will try
to make changes as we find any errors.
