Welcome to Wilcox County Schools. Nestled in the rich farmland of southwest central Georgia, WCS sits approximately 160 miles south of Atlanta, 130 miles north of Tallahassee and 111 east of Columbus, Georgia.
Wilcox County is known for agriculture, and peanuts, cotton, watermelons, and cantaloupes are the primary crops. WCS is the largest employer in the county with 187 employees, and the school district serves approximately 1,300 students.
WCS has a rich tradition of academics, athletics, and the arts. The lone high school in the county, Wilcox County High School, has traditionally boasted some of the highest graduation rates in the local RESA district. Just this past fall, juniors at WCHS scored the highest on the Georgia High School Writing Test when compared to other high schools in the RESA district.
In athletics, WCHS varsity sports have established a winning reputation, winning a 2009 State Championship in football. The school mascot, the Patriots, is synonymous with success: hosting a state semi-final in football this season, playing in the state finals in boys basketball this season, and having a former football player now starting in the NFL.
In the arts, WCHS has repeatedly placed regionally in One Act Play and Literary, and the elementary school, Wilcox County Elementary School, has placed on the state level in the Georgia Movie Academy competition.
Wilcox County Middle School continues to achieve at high levels on the state standardized test, the CRCT, with seventh grade scores near the top of the local RESA district. The WCMS sports teams consistently place near or at the top of its region.
A small-town school system with caring teachers, WCS is a great place to learn. Teachers know their students, the parents, and the families in Wilcox County. Students thrive in an atmosphere of compassion, trust, and rising expectations. The school system’s motto is: “I Believe in You,” and in every teacher’s classroom a poster signed by the teacher reinforces this
fact daily.
Go Patriots!
Extore is a team of professionals who are passionate about creating extensions for web browsers. This devotion also gives us opportunity to appreciate work of other people. We get inspired by useful, open source extensions made by developers all over the world. Our strong belief is that one should share helpful add-ons with others. That’s why we’d like to present you our ever-growing list of favourite extensions that have inspired us. Moreover, as you probably have already learned, sometimes struggling for the best brings an end to the good. Talking about add-ons it often turns out that an upgrade is worse then previous version. Also it can become really tricky to get back to the beloved version of your favourite extension. That’s why we’re going to make not only the latest, but all versions of our favourite (and we hope yours too) add-ons available for download. No more compromises, just stick to the version you really like!
