The end of the school year brings exciting activities and many celebrations. This week, on June 9, 2026, we honored our WW-P retirees, Educators of the Year, and Support Professionals of the Year at our annual District Celebration at High School South. Thank you to this amazing group of educators and staff members who have made such a difference in the lives of our students and families over the years. Thank you also to our Human Resources Department, Food Services team, Pritchard team, and Buildings and Grounds staff who worked to make this a great evening for our distinguished guests.

Over the next two weeks, I look forward to celebrating our students.
