We would like to send a huge THANK YOU to the amazing staff, faculty and administration at WT! A special thanks to Mr. Fields and Mr. Leighty for their dedication and efforts during a challenging 2024-2025 school year!

Creating a high-quality yearbook is no small feat. It requires countless hours of thoughtful planning, design, editing, and revision—much of which happens both in and out of the classroom. This year’s outstanding yearbook staff has risen to the challenge with dedication, creativity, and perseverance. We would like to give special recognition to our exceptional yearbook editors—Lorelei Goetz, Madalyn Richardson, and Layla Reeder—for their remarkable contributions. These students have consistently gone above and beyond, playing a vital role in the editing and revision process while producing visually compelling and high-quality spreads. Their leadership, attention to detail, and commitment to excellence have been invaluable to the success of this year’s publication. Mrs. Leighty and Mrs. Campbell are deeply grateful for their tireless work and inspired creativity throughout the year. Please join us in extending heartfelt appreciation to not only our incredible editors but also the entire yearbook staff, whose efforts have resulted in a meaningful collection of memories that the WT community will cherish for years to come.
