Safety Reminder:
Car riders should not be picked up in the student or teacher parking lots. This creates an unsafe situation for the car riders and student and teacher drivers. We have increased the number of signs in these areas to make it more obvious that student pick-up/drop-off is off-limits. We have had traffic accidents due to this area being too congested. The car rider line only takes 10 - 15 minutes to clear out from WHHS, starting at 3:30 pm. Please help us follow these expectations to get everyone where they need to be as quickly and safely as possible. I appreciate your cooperation!
NTI Reminder:
In the event that a NTI day is called due to bad weather, students are responsible for checking their google classrooms for assignments.

ACT Exam:
On March 11, the 11th-grade students will be taking the ACT exam. During this time, 11th graders will not have access to their phones.
