Welcome back readers. Thank you for your patience as we took a week away from the keyboard. As always, there is plenty going on at good old WHS!
Authorfest is back! This Wednesday, October 17, ( Day 7), all English and Social Studies classes will be in the WHS auditorium to hear Dick Lehr who was a Professor of Journalism at Boston University from 1985 – 2003. His latest book is The Birth of a Movement: How Birth of a Nation United the Battle for Civil Rights. Mr. Lehr also wrote the Edgar Award winner and very popular (and very local) Black Mass. We are excited to have this award winning author visit WHS.
