Go Trojans!!
Mausten has been invited to compete in the Rifle Junior Olympics (both precision air rifle and .22 smallbore), which will be held April 8–13 in Anniston, Alabama.
Elle has received an invitation to compete in the Pistol Junior Olympic competition, which will take place April 8–13 at the U.S. Olympic & Paralympic Training Center in Colorado Springs, Colorado.
These invitations recognize the dedication, discipline, and countless hours of practice the athletes have invested in their sport. Competing at this level places them among some of the top junior shooting athletes in the country.
The District is incredibly proud of both of them. While this is not a school sponsored activity, we want to recognize the accomplishments of both Elle and Mausten, we wish you good luck! We are honored that they will represent the West Central School District on the national stage.

The spring season is just around the corner for MS/HS activities at West Central. If you haven't already registered your child on Bound, please do so at your earliest convenience. If your child has previously participated in an activity, you should only need to register them in the spring activity. If this is their first activity of the year, you will need to go through the whole registration process. If they are playing a sport, please make sure they have a current physical form (both pages) uploaded on the Bound website. I have attached the registration directions, if needed. If you have any questions, please contact the high school, 605-528-6236.
