Have you seen these?
The Spartan Core Values System was created by Middle School Students as a guideline for success here at Wichita Collegiate School. Each of the 5 core values was well thought out and applicable to the lives of our middle school students. Take time to look at these values and talk with your student about how each are important to them. We are always talking of Spartan Core Values--and even Mrs. Dokken give students a point to their House if they repeat all correctly!

BE YOURSELF; EVERYONE ELSE IS ALREADY TAKEN. — OSCAR WILDE.
Back to school season. What an exciting time of year! I hope that as you prepare to return to school, you take a deep breath and feel the joy that is to be felt this school year! From meeting teachers, learning new academics, and participating in extra curricular activities - this year will bring the best of the best. I am excited to meet everyone next week and start this year off well! :) Hello, my name is Heidi Holton and I would like to introduce myself as the new middle school counselor at WCS. I am thrilled to be "re-joining" the Collegiate family as an alum, Class of 2011. I am coming to Collegiate from a school counselor position in Wichita Public Schools. USD 259 and am a Kansas State Licensed School Counselor, grades K-12. My degrees include both a Bachelors of Art in Social Work and a Masters of Education in Counseling from Wichita State University. While pursuing my post-graduate education, I had the opportunity to research and become familiar with topics such as play therapy and trauma informed schools. I believe it is important to see the "whole child" and foster ways for students to not only succeed in academics, but also to recognize and address their emotions, while having adults support their growth along the way.
