Exciting News!!! Cyril Nagurski has been named the new head coach for WWCS Baseball. CYRIL NAGURSKI was born in Bismarck but spent his first few years at Washburn school pre-3rd grade before moving full time to Bismarck, so he is familiar with the Washburn community. Coach Nagurski played hockey, football, baseball throughout his high school career at Bismarck Century. After high school, Coach Nagurski played junior hockey in Minnesota and spent a season in Colorado being the baseball coach at Florence High school. Coach Nagurski moved back home to play college hockey at the University of Mary with Coach Horner. After his time at the University of Mary, he had a short pro hockey career this last season. Coach C currently is a learning center teacher at Mandan High school and last year was WWCS assistant baseball coach. Coach Nagurski is very excited to lead the WWCS baseball program.

It was a GREAT day to celebrate a Cardinal at the Capitol today. Mrs. Antenniell Neumiller received her Teacher of the Year award from Superintendent Baesler today! "Antenniell is a teacher who looks at each child in her classroom as an individual who is special in her or her own way. She cares deeply for each child and works hard to meet each child where they are to get them where they need to be. Former students frequently travel through the hallways and greet Mrs. Neumiller in a way that clearly shows she made a difference in their lives--a testament to the lasting impact of her dedication. Beyond academics, encouraging serves as a mentor and role model, encouraging new teachers to develop confidence, resilience, and a love for teaching." "
