Westonka Performance Program (WPP) | Summer season Entering Grades 6 - 12 The mission of the Westonka Performance Program (WPP) is to capture the hearts and minds of our students through a rigorous and regimented physical preparation program. The Westonka Performance Program (WPP) will provide each student with an innovative, year - round athletic development program focused on improving speed, strength, power, agility, mobility, and endurance.
