New Year's Inspiration:
WHS Staff Holiday "Wheel of Fortune" Week":
Thanks again to you all for playing along with the WHS Holiday Wheel of Fortune! While I am certain it didn't do much to provide a calming, quiet, and orderly atmosphere that last week before break, I do hope you had some fun and that it was a memorable week for all.
If you were not at WHS for our 12/20 ER Day, or want to re-watch the video of WHS Holiday Wheel of Fortune artifacts... click the video below! (Thanks again Morgan for putting this together!)
Huge Shout Out to the KDG Team!

Favorite Memory of a recent school experience:

What is your hidden talent?

What advice would you give to someone just starting off their career in education?
Make connections, get involved, build relationships, and show your passion!
What is the last joke that you recall?
Told to me by a student: "What did you think of that restaurant in outer space? -Great food, bad atmosphere."
Best Concert Experience:
Shania Twain- I was 7 years old and my parents surprised me. We got in the car and I didn't find out what we were doing until we arrived. It was also my very first concert.

She really pulled through for me and my kids in a very rough situation. It's the greatest example of family - being there for one another. Thank you Lisa.
