Friend of Education Award:
Will Wolfe:
The Friend of Education is an award presented to an individual or organization that supports our schools and our community. Friends of Education don’t usually go unrecognized, but they are rarely acknowledged for the critical work they do as partners. This year, we are presenting Will Wolfe with the Friends of Education award. Will is a constant in the community where he has been an active member for 20 years. He exemplifies the Warrior spirit through and through and is frequently seen supporting our athletic teams and participating in events throughout the community. As an avid volunteer, he has built relationships throughout the community and within our schools. Will works as a dental hygienist at Lionel John Health Center but may be more famous in town for his successful BBQ business. Will is regarded as a kind, smart, and fair man and today we recognize him as the 2024 Friend of Education.

This year however, is different. It is the first time that we gather to honor two remarkable individuals who embody the very essence of our Warrior spirit.
These students are athletes, artists, members of student council, and leaders in our school who focus on improving their school, community, and the world.
These students have demonstrated an unparalleled commitment to enhancing student participation at our sporting events. Their relentless efforts to rally support, create excitement, and build community have not only increased attendance but also elevated the energy and enthusiasm of our entire student body. Whether it's cheering on our teams from the sidelines, playing themselves, organizing spirit days, or encouraging their peers to get involved with Warrior Nation, they have shown that true Warrior pride is infectious.
These sisters have proven time and again that the Warrior way isn't just about excellence on the court or field; it's about being champions in our community. Their dedication extends beyond athletics, as they continuously strive to make a positive impact in all areas of student life. They walk the Warrior way with integrity, passion, and a steadfast commitment to their fellow students.
Their actions have made a lasting impression on all of us, setting a shining example of what it means to be a Warrior. Today, we celebrate their achievements and the spirit they have instilled in us all. Karina and Karolina Mireless-Crouse, your efforts have not gone unnoticed, and we are deeply grateful for your unwavering dedication.
Congratulations on this well-deserved recognition, and thank you for showing us what it truly means to have Warrior pride.
