America Recycles Day

November 15 was America Recycles Day and Woodward Academy was recognized with the "2014 Outstanding Business / Workplace Waste Reduction and Recycling Award" by the Boone County Recycling Center. This past year, both students and staff have been involved in helping WA make a more concerted effort to reduce waste by recycling cans and paper.

According to the official website, events are being hosted across the United States to raise awareness on the benefits of recycling. The 15th is only "One day to educate. One day to motivate. One day to make recycling bigger and better 365 days a year." Woodward Academy was honored to receive the award and to be recognized as a leader in Boone county.

Royal Rumble Wrestling Week!

It is officially Royal Rumble Wrestling Week at Woodward Academy which means that you'll see a lot of spandex and wrestling belts walking across campus. The week long festivities all lead up to the weekend activities where Impact Pro Wrestling will put on a show for the entire student body.

Throughout the week, students and staff dress up like their favorite professional wrestler as a part of a competition to see who has the highest spirit. In addition to getting into character, dorms will be working on their wrestling chants and entrances, and even group sessions during the week will be focused around a "wrestling theme." Friday night, dorms will be preparing their signs so when Saturday night comes, everyone will be ready to get rowdy! All of these activities will be judged and combined together to generate a cumulative score to see which dorm wins.
