Wells High School News

  • WHS Senior Kendall Maxon
    Oct 7, 2024

    WMTW recognizes three-sport athlete and scholar

    During a recent local television sports news story, Wells High School senior Kendall Maxon said in the middle of a statement, “I like staying active..” which is an understatement for one who not only maintains a 4.0 accumulative grade point average but is the captain of three WHS teams, Lacrosse, basketball, and soccer.

    In late August, Maxon was honored with the distinction of WMTW Channel 8’s “Scholar-Athlete of the Week.” She was nominated for this by her Lacrosse coach, Morgan Pike.

    “Kendall is an amazing athlete, student, and young lady,” wrote Pike in an email. She was a phenomenal leader as a junior captain last season and helped lead the team to the state championship. Kendall is an athlete who embodies unselfishness and coaching ability. She leads by example, always putting the team's success above her own, and her work ethic is unparalleled. Whether in practice or during the game, Kendall demonstrates commitment and dedication that inspires everyone around her.”

    While visiting WHS, Channel 8 personnel filmed Maxon at Lacrosse practice. In an interview, she told Ch. 8 sports reporter Travis Lee that Lacrosse is her favorite of the three sports she competes in. In Lacrosse, she plays “midfield” and “attack” positions.

    Maxon indicated that her favorite subjects are math and science. “I’ve always been motivated to do my best in the classroom,” she told Lee. In high school thus far, she has completed six AP college classes and four online York County Community College (YCCC) classes. Once in college, she plans to continue playing Lacrosse and pursue a degree in Business, focusing on Marketing and Management.

    Kendall is also interested in real estate and wants to obtain a real estate license this winter and work with her mother, a real estate agent. Kendall has an identical twin sister, Maren who also plays basketball.

    The WHS Players to present “Harry Potter and the Cursed Child”

    The Drama Department at Wells High School has announced that it has been granted one of the first licenses in the United States to present the high school edition of “Harry Potter and the Cursed Child.” This play is based on an original story by J. K. Rowling, John Tiffany, and Jack Thorne and will appear on stage at the Olenn Performing Arts Center at WHS from November 20 to November 23, 2024. Producer for the Drama Department, Andrea Hernandez, indicated that more information about this event will be forthcoming.

    “We are beyond excited to put on such a prestigious and well-known show,” commented WHS Director of Dramatics and director of this play Andrew Lopez. “The magic of this franchise will be a fun challenge to bring to life.”

    The high school edition of “Harry Potter and the Cursed Child” transports audiences back to Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, where old friendships are tested and new adventures unfold. Set nineteen years after the events of "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows," this thrilling tale follows the journey of Harry Potter's youngest son, Albus Severus Potter, as he grapples with the weight of his family legacy and embarks on a quest to confront the past.

    “We have an amazing opportunity to put on a show that pushes our students and faculty to perform at the next level," explained producer Hernandez. "We are going to be making people's childhood fantasies a reality. Harry Potter is a larger-than-life name, and we feel honored to be the first school in Maine to put on this show."

    With its timeless themes of friendship, courage, and the enduring power of love, “Harry Potter and the Cursed Child” offers a spellbinding theatrical experience for audiences of all ages. From dazzling spell-casting to heart-pounding adventures, this production will leave audiences on the edge of their seats.
