We want to recognize our school nurse, Ann Moore, for everything she does for our students and staff during National Nurse Appreciation Week.

Madison Cheyann Lundvall is the daughter of Lee and Traci Lundvall. While in high school, Madi participated in wrestling, cross country, basketball and track. She was also a member of FCCLA and FFA at Wapello High School.
Madi names Ms. Eakins as her most influential staff member, spending a lot of time hanging out in her office. Madi’s future plans include attending Iowa Central Community College to major in animal science. She will also be on their rodeo team.
“Don’t procrastinate,” is what Madi would offer up to underclassmen. She quotes John Dutton saying, "It's one constant in life. You build something worth having, someone's gonna try it."
Congratulations, Madi!

It's Throwback Thursday! Back to the 1996 WHS Tomahawk this week for some more memories!
“Get involved as much as you can.” Words of encouragement from graduating senior, Liby Maria-Rose Shafer. Liby sure did take her own advice while in high school, participating in pom squad, football cheer, volleyball, golf, soccer, and student council for four years. She was also in band for two years. She claims most of her time in high school was spent running around to every activity!
Liby’s most influential teachers in high school would be my math teachers. “When it came to math class I hated going and I felt very confused. Eventually with a lot of patience from my math teachers my mindset changed and I learned not to hate math.”
Liby’s future plans include attending Indian Hills Community College to further her education and athletic career. Liby is the daughter of Jay Shafer and Marcia Langan.
Liby leaves the halls of WHS with this quote, “I made memories!”
Best of luck, Liby!

“To be a winner, you don’t have to cross the finish line first.” Words of wisdom from graduating senior, Kendall Burger. Kendall is the daughter of Ben Burger and Kara Halling.
While in high school, Kendall participated in FFA, 4-H, and bowling. Her experience in FFA and 4-H, as well as her time spent with Mrs. Chapman in her classroom and the greenhouse, will help prepare Kendall in attending Ellsworth Community College to pursue horse training.
Kendall names Ms. Bostian as the staff member who had the most influence on her because she gave her chances and always tried to include her in things with other kids. She was there for Kendall when she really needed someone.
Kendall advises underclassmen to, “Take time to yourself. Don't over stress yourself, take time to be a kid.”
We wish you well, Kendall!

LIvia Ray Fuller’s yearbook quote would say - “This was nothing like High School Musical!” Livia, or Livy as she is lovingly called, is the daughter of Travis and Kelly Fuller.
Over the last four years, Livy has been busy participating in choir for one year, golf for two years, volleyball for four years, and softball for five years. When she wasn’t in class, Livy could be found with Ms. Eakins, spending time in her office. LIvy says that Ms. Eakins has been her most influential staff member because “she’s always positive and wants nothing but the best for everyone.”
Livy’s parting wisdom to the underclassmen is to “Show up to class and get your work done!”
LIvy is still deciding between the medical and education field as her future career and plans to attend college in the fall.
Good Luck, Livy!
