Everyone at Wardlaw has been very busy over the past week.

The High School Math Team traveled to Orangeburg last Wednesday to compete in the annual High School Math Competition.

The members of the team included: Caroline Herlong, Kevin Ginn, Ryan Terry, Anna Yarborough, Tony Keenan, Reid Miller, Victoria Cockrell, Jessica Allen, Brooke Padgett, Kara Beck, and Margaret Anne Christie. The high scorers from the team were Victoria Cockrell and Kevin Ginn.

Wardlaw's FCA had their monthly meeting last Thursday night. The speaker was Ms. Jennifer Parker. Her topic of discussion was "serving others".

She shared many stories about the different mission trips that she has taken over the past several years. She also showed the students many souvenirs that she has brought back from her trips and pictures that she had taken. About twenty students attended the meeting.

Everyone enjoyed listening to Ms. Parker, fellowshipping, and eating.

The FCA also hosted a bake sale last Saturday at the Basketball Fun Night.

This money will help pay for the expenses of the High School Garden City Beach Retreat in March.
There was a great turn out for the Advancement FundÕs Basketball Fun Night on Saturday. Everyone enjoyed talking with alumni and watching them compete in a basketball game.

Thanks to everyone who made the event possible!
