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 to find several interesting facts about the history of Wyandotte High School provided by Justina Sparks and Mike Delich, former teachers at Wyandotte.
