WHS Celebrate 2024 Underclass Award Winners

Principal Keith Schenker quoted Federal Reserve Chair Janet Yellen in his remarks, “There is an unfortunate myth that success is mainly determined by something called “ability.” But research indicates that our best measures of these qualities are unreliable predictors of performance in academics or employment. Psychologist Angela Lee Duckworth says that what really matters is a quality she calls “grit”—an abiding commitment to work hard toward long-range goals and to persevere through the setbacks that come along the way.”

Congratulations to all our Wildcat scholars.
