2024 VEX State Championship at Hendersonville High School (video)

This year's team has been selected!  It was a highly competitive set of tryout interviews with almost 60 students attempting to join the team.  Those who were chosen have been notified by WCS Gmail and should now join the Schoology group, Warrior Robotics Competition Team, to receive future communications.

This team is limited to 20 students (Four teams of five students each) and those students are selected after completing an interview process with Ravenwood High School VEX robotics students.  8th graders are given first priority in filling the 20 slots.  7th graders are next and if any open slots remain, 6th graders might be considered. 

Making the team will require commitments to meeting at least once a week after school to build and code VEX Robots and to attending weekend competitions.

Teams will compete in scrimmages at various WCS middle schools, with possible qualifying advancement to official VEX Robotics Competitions.

Student Council is an important group of students who meet every other week (on Tuesdays) to organize and carry out projects to help the school and the community during the school year.  

The group is comprised of homeroom representatives and at-large members. The homeroom representatives are elected or selected by the homeroom to represent the homeroom class, so these students report back their homerooms and help lead their homerooms during competitions. The at-large members are full-fledged Student Council members, but they are not required to be spokespeople for their homerooms. The at-large members may come and go, as their after-school schedules allow.

Some of the projects the Student Council has conducted in the past have been the collection of canned food for the needy of Williamson County, collection of funds to aid the victims of disasters,  fund-raising projects to purchase special items for the school, sponsoring dances for 7th and 8th Graders, and organizing “Spirit Week” to foster school spirit for the whole student body.​
