Drifting Sands
History
First Tse Ho Tso Annual-1959
The publication, Drifting Sands, had its birth during a dust storm in October 1955. Ms. Lorraine Wauneka Nelson, currently a WRHS School Board Member and former Fort Defiance Elementary School teacher, was a student in a class taught by Mrs. Maggie Matthews, English faculty member. Mrs. Matthews asked the group to think of an appropriate name for the high school newspaper.
Lorraine recalls that the students were looking out the window of the classroom, watching the wind blow the sand against the building and noticing the drifts and patterns that were being formed. The scene was of drifting sands. That name was chosen.
Drifting Sands was first published by the ninth grade as a special project. Lorraine Wauneka became the first Editor-In-Chief. Robert Nelson was the Assistant Editor. Sammy Kee was the Art Editor. Others involved included Skippy Curley, Helen Cronemeyer, Everett Benally, Betty Ashley and Marjorie Damon.
WRHS Principal, Pauletta White, hopes that in publishing the Drifting Sands online that it will be a tribute to all students and staff who helped create the newspaper and develop it throughout the years. wrscouts.com proudly presents The Drifting Sands, a tradition that has survived almost half a century recording much of the history of WRHS.
