SUMMER BABYSITTERS
Do you need a babysitter for the summer or for a date night out? Look no further than the WCA Summer Sitters List - 2025! This is a list of WCA high school students looking to make some extra cash this summer. Print it out and hang it on your fridge for quick reference. It's your guide to who's available when and with what ages they have experience with. All logistics including transportation, pay rate, and hours should be managed between the family and the sitter. Happy (almost) summer! (See the Weekly email for the WCA Summer Sitter List)

Mrs. Disher will be there along with a professional from Marshall Music. Students can try out multiple instruments to see what they may like to play in strings or band classes!
