Tomorrow is our annual Day of Giving! Before the day begins we wanted to take a minute to celebrate our incredible faculty. We already have 100% participation of our full-time faculty members in our Day of Giving this year! We couldn't be more grateful for a staff that fully invests in ALL of the ways in our amazing school. They are a shining example every day not only for our students, but also for this year's motto of "Don't Stop Believing!" We are so proud to call them ours!
Picnic Day is the best day!!!
Any class you can play with fire is always going to be a fan favorite around here! #SpartanChemists #CultivatingCuriousSpartans #SpartansThriveTogether #SixtyYearsofSpartans
Last week we celebrated as eleven of our students were recognized as National Merit Scholars. We had six students earn National Merit Commended Recognition (top 2.5%) and five earn National Merit Semifinalist honors (top 1%). As a school it has been an honor to support and encourage each of them as they consistently put in the time and effort that results in incredible recognitions such as this one. We couldn't be more proud. Congratulations, Spartans! #CultivatingCuriousSpartans #SpartansThriveTogether #NationalMeritScholars #WichitaPrivateSchools #WichitaSchools

This past weekend we had the privilege of celebrating our latest class of Circle of Gold honorees. Induction into our Circle of Gold is the highest honor at Collegiate, reserved for those who we believe to be the true architects of our school. Every one of these special people helped build the foundation for what Wichita Collegiate is today. After an evening of speeches, the inspiring words shared both by and about the inductees on Friday night are still echoing in the ears of those in attendance. We all left feeling exactly what Mrs. Wagner said in her speech, "I've been a lot of places...there is NO place like Wichita Collegiate School." #SixtyYearsofSpartans #WichitaCollegiateSchool #WCSCircleofGold #TheBestofTheBest

Our Upper School kicked off the 2023-2024 school year with their mind set on service and class bonding! For our freshmen, sophomores, and juniors these two things went hand-in-hand as they volunteered for Habitat for Humanity, The Kansas Food Bank, and the Outreach Program. Our seniors are taking every chance they can this year to have some fun together before graduation and headed off to Top Golf! #SixtyYearsofSpartans #CultivatingCuriousSpartans #SpartansLoveWichita #WCSInstituteforCommunityImpact
The joy and happiness emanating from our halls today is almost overwhelming. Sixty years of Spartans STARTS TODAY! #CultivatingCuriousSpartans #SixtyYearsofSpartans

Watching our 2nd graders stand up one by one and confidently recite their memorized speeches to a standing-room only auditorium will forever leave us beaming in pride! They are amazing and put on an incredible Salute to America program. Getting to read through their state reports and see the creative state artifacts they chose at the celebration afterwards only further proved how hard they all worked to make this much-loved tradition one of the best yet! Way to go, 2nd grade!!! #SpartansThriveTogether #SpartansThriveOnStage #SalutetoAmerica
We are just one week away from graduating the Class of 2023! As we countdown to that day, we want to take some time to celebrate this class and all they have accomplished during their time as a Spartan. Each day we will reveal where small groups of our graduates are headed! Today we are celebrating the students headed West! #WCSClassof2023 #WCSSpartanGraduates
Our second graders spent all week "at" Camp Learned A Lot! The classrooms turned into camp cabins, they set-up reading tents, and completed assignments around the "camp fire" as they reviewed all they have learned this year. Not only did they go over the subjects they covered, they also took time to do some personal reflecting on the past year as second graders. This included writing about their favorite memories, the most surprising things they learned, and so much more. As you can tell, all of our "campers" had so much fun! #CampLearnedALot #SpartansThriveTogether #BringingLearningtoLife #OneRoomTransformationAtATime #WichitaPrivateSchools
"I LOVE FIELD DAY!" was shouted no less than a thousand times today. #FIELDDAYISTHEBESTDAY #WCSISTHEBEST #SpartansThriveTogether #WichitaSchools #FieldDay2023

Collegiate’s middle school chess team competed in its first ever State tournament on March 11, 2023 in Emporia, placing 3rd in State. The team missed a 1st place finish for their age group by a mere ½ point across 24 rounds of chess. Caden Cleveland, Houston Esterline, Ethan Rukes, and Carver Cleveland represented Collegiate at State. Well done, team. Go Collegiate Chess!
We had too much fun at Read and Romp earlier this week! Thank you to all of the amazing volunteers that make this awesome event happen for our Early Childhood students!!! #SpartansThriveTogether
