District Calendar: Information listed at "your

Anecdote: As
you can see from the above picture, Wyandotte has twin towers which
were given names by then principal J.F. Wellemeyer: the West Tower
(on your right) represented knowledge and
the East Tower (on your left) represented character.
According to Wellemeyer, "The west was a land of pioneers,
eager and ambitious to achieve and acquire, and they were true
pioneers in arts and sciences as well as many newer branches of
learning. The east suggests maturity, stability of character, refinement,
culture and inspiration." Click on the "Anecdote" link
