STUDENT SHOUT:

"A lot of teachers just care about learning and not really how to get a student to learn. They care that they didn’t do their homework but might not care about the reason why they didn’t. Mr. Moore is not like that. Mr. Moore (Whitmer English) knows how to get students to learn and want to learn. From singing in class to get our attention to giving us activities that are actually meaningful and taking suggestions about things he could do better in class. He also cares which goes a long way. I wish all teachers were like Mr. Moore."

Students notice the little things and clearly appreciate all Mr. Moore does for them!

RETIRED BUS DRIVER SHOUTOUT:

"We had the absolute BEST bus driver for our Educators Rising trip to Columbus for Teaching Professions! He went above and beyond by building connections with our students—something they truly noticed and appreciated. Showing up to cheer them on at the awards ceremony meant so much and speaks volumes about the kind of person he is. We are so lucky to have someone so supportive, positive, and genuinely invested in our students on our team!"

Mr. Don does A LOT of field trips for us and is the BEST!

* Interesting fact* His father (Don Dottie Sr) is also a retired bus driver for us!
We love our WLS family!!!

Panther Nation is so proud of these girls heading to State this weekend!

Their coach said: "I am so proud of these girls heading to State in a sport that hasn’t always made room for them. Wrestling is tough, demanding, and still very male-dominated, but each of these girls showed up, put in the work, and earned every bit of this moment. You didn’t just compete, you made a statement every time you stepped onto the mat. Keep proving that strength, grit, and heart don’t have a gender. Continue paving the road for the younger generation of female wrestlers. Be proud of yourself and remember how hard you worked to be where you are. Have fun and leave it all on the mat this weekend! I'll be there cheering you all on!"

"My grandson has Mr Rhoades as his band teacher.  Just want to give a shout out to him. I have attended the concerts that Jefferson has put on for the last two years.  I have enjoyed the concerts and have been so impressed with Mr Rhoades' dedication to the students and the band program.  WLS are very lucky to have such a wonderful teacher on their staff."

PARENT SHOUT:

"Mrs. Kerr is such a dedicated teacher to her 4th graders. My daughter was Student of the Month for her class.. but Mrs. Kerr had a personal matter to attend so she was not at school. Mrs. Kerr loves these babies so much she made sure she had time to come BACK to school, just to quickly pop in for the assembly and surprise my daughter! It absolutely made Aeris's whole day."

Making time for someone is the ultimate way to show love and Ms. Kerr made this student feel seen and special! ​

DISTRICT SHOUT:

"I wanted to thank you ALL for the incredible support you’ve shown my children and me since my husband, Steve, passed. Whether it was the meals, the messages, the memorials, the visits, or just listening has made a world of difference. Knowing we have this wonderful district and community behind us makes the hard days a little easier to bear. I’m so grateful for each of you. Thank you :) --Jen Mayo, Shoreland"

While joy is easy, our community's relentless commitment to standing together in sorrow is just one more thing that makes this place special. 💘
