TEXTLESS, Live More was a pledge made by MWHS students during the SADD and State Farm Traffic Safety Challenge.

Someone loves you, encourages students to put away their phones before they step behind the wheel. Great advice for everyone on the road!

If you want honest feedback, ask a first grader. MWHS students in Ms. Rivelli’s English class visited Sapphire Elementary and read children’s picture books they had authored and illustrated themselves. Tiny faces hung on every word as the HS students bravely asked the first graders their opinions. Interactions such as this between our youngest Crusaders and high school students will always be a cherished tradition at M-W! 📖💜
