School Reviews
| 5 I saw your band at the rose bowl parade today. I was teacher and principal at WILLIAM MASON SCHOOL IN Choiceland, Saskatchewan Canada from 1968 to 1998. I was so surprised to hear that there was another WMHS. Are you interested in corresponding with this Canadian school? - Posted by Teacher - Lrigg |
