Good morning, Spartan Nation!
Last evening, the monthly school Board meeting was held. At each meeting, a person or persons are recognized for their contributions to the school and or students. During last night's meeting, Mr. Riley Waters was recognized. Riley is a 2023 graduate of W.A.S. During his senior year, Riley began his work-based training in the kitchen & continued on right after graduation. He is a tremendous help in the cafeteria. His help & interaction with the students is irreplaceable & heartwarming. Thank you & congratulations to Mr. Riley Waters for this month's Spartan Star.
