The letters were sent electronically to the school in Spain, and it is the first of many communications they will have next semester.

FTA would like to recognize Pete Claas this month for his efforts and contributions to the classroom and lives of the students at WHS.
FTA members believe Mr. Claas deserves this because Mr. Claas is a dedicated and kind teacher. He has served students for over 30 years as a teacher and coach. He even came back out of retirement to teach!
