February is Heart Awareness month. This year we want to celebrate it with Hearts for Samara.
Samara is a WHS Senior and had a Heart Transplant the summer of 2023. At this time she is having some medical issues with her heart and will be making many trips to Children’s Hospital in St. Louis.
You can purchase a Heart for $1.00 in the school offices during the month of February. You can put your name and/or a message to her on the heart and we will be posting them around the school for her.
All proceeds will go to Samara to help with travel expenses.
