Last week we cheered on our basketball, wrestling, and swim teams as they participated in 14 competitions. Our boys basketball teams defeated Kings Ridge and Mount Vernon early in the week, and on Friday our JV and varsity teams traveled to Walker to compete. Wrestling teams took on Creekside Christian, Marietta Middle School, and Mount Vernon this week, continuing to work hard and show great improvement. For more information on these athletic events and more, check out the recaps below.
Whitefield is now headed into a three-day week! We’ll finish out this semester with home basketball games against North Cobb Christian and South Atlanta Christian on Wednesday night. Join us as we celebrate the completion of this semester by cheering on the Pack!
As we finish out 2017, my family and I want to wish each of you a very Merry Christmas and Happy New Year! Katie and I feel incredibly blessed to be a part of the Whitefield community. We have loved spending this last year with you, and we wish you safe travels, meaningful celebrations, and many moments of peace and rest during the semester break.
I look forward to experiencing all that God has planned for 2018 with the WolfPack!
