To highlight Black historical figures that lower schoolers learn about throughout the year, students created posters based on biographies to present what information they learned.
The books they read included peacemakers for first grade, inventors for second grade, environmentalists for third grade, entrepreneurs for fourth grade, and civil rights activists for fifth grade.
Kindergarten students recently listened to a read-aloud of "The Skin You Live In" by Michael Tyler and explored the diversity and the variety of skin tones of the children in the story before creating their own self-portraits!
The Upper School Club Fair is a great opportunity for students to learn more about the variety of clubs available at WFS, from the Steminists to Random Acts of Kindness and Robotics!
Congratulations to WFS seniors Evan Jones and Maddie Miller who were recognized by the College Board with the National African American Recognition Award!
