Blood Drive

We hosted our annual blood drive yesterday.  Thanks to Mrs. Lang and student council.  This is a message from Mrs. Lang!  Great job West Hancock!


Thank you to everyone who contributed to the blood drive this year!  We had 25 registered donors this year.  Of those 25, 23 were able to donate blood, and 6 of those were double red cell procedures!  The nurse in charge mentioned that the students that donated and that worked at the donation center were very easy to work with, and that it was a great drive. Good job West Hancock students!

State Level Accomplishments for Several Activities!

We have had a lot of success this winter at West Hancock in our activities!

Our wrestling team qualified four individuals for the State tournament.  Ryder Clark, Gunnar Clark, Chris Schleuger and Zac Schleuger all qualified!  Gunnar placed 8th, Chris placed 4th and Zac placed 3rd.  It was a great way to end the wrestling season! Congratulations to the wrestlers and coaches!

Our girls basketball team had a great season and qualified for the State Tournament for the second year in a row.  Their season ended with a heartbreaking loss to PellaChristian on Tuesday.  It has been quite a run for these girls the last two years.  Congratulations to the players and coaches!

The Individual Speech team competed at the district tournament at Mason City and had a great day! We achieved 18 division one ratings! They will compete at State on March 10th.  Congratulations to all of our qualifiers and coaches!
