Maria Johnson, the teacher of seniors, the friend of many. Unfortunately the seniors of 2014-2015 will be the last class to be able to experience her at WCS. Although there have been no clear reasoning to why she will be fired, most believe that she is being fired because many students feel she is mean. I believe Mrs. Johnson is an amazing teacher, and an even more amazing human. Personally, I have known her for years. Since my first year in highschool, she was there for me. The teachers here are fantastic, don't get me wrong. I love every one of them. But there's something different about Mrs. Johnson. Often when I'm having a rough day or just look down in the dumps, she pulls me aside and asks if everything is alright. She spends long parts of her day she could be grading papers making sure I am feeling fine. She goes above and beyond in her job.

On top of that, she has two sons who will be attending college next year, and then the second in just a few more after that. You may know that college is anything but cheap. Losing her job right now will have a large impact on this. Money isn't easy to come by, nor is finding a new job. Especially in the teaching industry.

Sign this petition to show the administration at WCS that Mrs. Johnson is worth keeping.
