Here are some things staff members shared about Brayden when nominating him for this spotlight:
"Brayden is someone who exemplifies what being a great teammate is. He’s unselfish, hardworking, humble, coachable, and supportive of others. He is someone that will celebrate the success of others more than boast about his own accomplishments. I’m grateful to have coached Brayden for the last four years."
"I have had the privilege of serving as Brayden Henderson's agricultural instructor for six years, and during that time, I have witnessed his exceptional talent, dedication, and leadership both in and out of the classroom."
"He's the kind of student that spends all day preparing for courtwarming, engages fellow students at pep assemblies, participates in the coronation festivities, plays a basketball game, attends a dance afterward, and then wakes up early the next morning to go to a math contest and still performs at the highest levels. Brayden is nothing if not a positive influence on all of those around him, and we are lucky to have him as a student at WHS."
Brayden’s leadership, humility, and work ethic make him a true example of what it means to be a Wildcat.
Congratulations, Brayden! Thank you for representing WHS with excellence and pride. We are incredibly proud of you!
