Academic Counseling
Academic Help Within WHS:
Did you know that you can make an appointment to see your teacher for extra help? All teachers have office hours... Just ask.
Beyond the time you spend with your teacher in and out of class, you can also stop by one of the academic labs in English,
Social Studies, Math, or World Languages to get some help. The Lab schedules can be found on the specific subject's website on the WHS Website.
If after seeing your teacher and lab teacher you still need support, please talk to your school counselor.
The Science & Tech Dept is providing peer tutors in science. Students can sign out of a directed research to go to the science help center (room 257 in the science wing, across the hall from most of the Grade 9 science class rooms) for help with science assignments. Open nearly every block.
National Honor Society offers peer tutoring. Complete this form and a member of NHS will reach out to connect you with a tutor.
