Impressive Students



I love the fact that WKHS students have such varied talents and abilities.  Each of you have your own personal gifts and your willingness to share them with the school and community benefits all of us.  I consider myself fortunate to have the chance to get to know you and learn about so many of those gifts, but it is also exciting when your talents are on display for everyone to see.  
Arts in Action is one of those days when the varied artistic talents of our students are celebrated.  

Many of my students had art work on display and I loved seeing it all!  In addition to the chance to see your creations, some of my students donated part of their time during Arts in Action to actively work on their art projects so that people could see it coming to life.  A huge thank you and congratulations to: Emma Blanton, Olivia Barrie, Morgan Beals, Kinsley Capuano, Lauren Bair, Luke Compton, Sophia Exline, Julian Bernal, and Gwen Cardimen who volunteered to be art ambassadors during the day, to Avery Burns who helped demonstrate the recycling impacts, and to Brady Cloyd and Stella Bixler who were a part of the musicians who performed.  I am in awe of your talents!

And then, in addition to Arts in Action, this past week Abby English signed her Letter of Intent to play soccer at Capital University next year.  This is an awesome accomplishment and a reflection of years of hard work, energy and effort.  Congratulations Abby!
