Quotes from Judges and Parents about the Capstone Fair:
"The Capstone Fair was the most perfect, hopeful, ending to the day."
"The four projects I evaluated were diverse, compelling in terms of their content, and the students were elated to address me and present their findings. The district should be proud of what they have produced in terms of the caliber of these students and the intelligible presentations they produced."
"What a superb group of students and budding researchers!"
"I hope WHS can keep this program going indefinitely. As a parent, seeing it in action instilled a sense of validation for sending my son(s) there. Many friends and colleagues who have kids in other districts express envy when they learn about the Capstone program at WHS! "
"It’s certainly a great way for a student to learn presentation skills ahead of college. "
