We had a great first week at WHS! To end an amazing week, we want to celebrate the accomplishment of our Technology Director, Denise Marshall.

To end our announcements everyday, we tell our students that after WHS comes college, military or trade school. Thanks for setting a good example Denise!
The Class of 2024 stepped into their role as leaders of the school today. Learning also has begun as teachers reviewed classroom rules and expectations. Art students got to use fire to burn their decorated tiles, seniors started their senior resumes and Algebra 1 students worked together to complete a task. It's going to be a great year! 🚀🚀🚀
