Now, normally, this page will be reserved specifically to show off the many talents of the students living in Wyview Park. For the first month, however, we thought we’d introduce the staff here, instead. It lets you get to know us, and it lets us avoid that brain cramp while trying to see into the future to know what you’re like before you even get here. (Our telepathy kind of stinks).
