WPGHS Values: Inclusivity
Inclusivity is evident in Wiley Park Girls High School in both the past and present. This is presented by the awareness of immigrants in the community who weren't fluent in English. Due to the lack of communication, Wiley Park Girls High School provided 2 student translators, one in Greek and the other in Lebanese, to translate the speech to parents and students with English as their second language so they could still understand and feel included in the speech night.
In the present day, Wiley Park Girls provide more opportunities for parents and students to learn and participate in everyday learning even with a border between languages. To add, the school supports everyone with translators and texts written in different languages so everyone and anyone can have equal advantage for education.
