Cultural Partnership Mixer-
Under the direction of the Leader-in-Me Student Lighthouse Team, students from all over the school came together yesterday for the first Cultural Partnership Mixer of the new year. These students will continue to meet in smaller and less-formal ways throughout the semester—forming bonds across grades levels, academic pathways, and backgrounds.



We want to express our gratitude to our generous and supportive community for providing us with tissues, hand sanitizer, and wipes to do our best to keep all of us healthy!

WLHS employees wrapped up the year with a delicious home-cooked breakfast lovingly prepared by the gentlemen on staff! Thank you, Christina Sutton, for preparing warm coffee and a tea bar for our morning celebration. A heartfelt thank you to our amazing PTSO for the cozy new blankets and to our supportive BOE members for joining us this morning. We don’t see one another as co-workers, but as family—and moments like these remind us why. Wishing everyone a joyful, restful holiday season filled with warmth, laughter, and time with loved ones. Merry Christmas!
