Welcome to the Waltham High School Building Project

This website will inform the Waltham community about where we stand in the MSBA process, why we need a new high school and other important details. 

This is an exciting time in Waltham!  In so many ways, the Waltham Public Schools operate from a position of strength.  We know we deliver programs and opportunities to our students that most communities only dream about. We want to expand those opportunities for all students.  We are fortunate to have so many great teachers and educators in our system, and this is true at the high school where our teachers have the skills to prepare all of our students for the college or career of their choice.  We are one community and we are excited and inspired to deliver a state of the art high school that provides an enriching, project-based education that prepares all students for college, career and the demands of the 21st century. 

Recently the WHS TV & Video Broadcasting Program welcomed Boston Fox 25 Meteorologist Shiri Spear and WCVB/Channel 5 News Anchor Maria Stephanos to their studio!   Ms. Spear talked about the priorities of the forecasting process and what a typical day looks like for a meteorologist.  She engaged the students in some activities describing the force behind the weather.  Ms. Stephanos shared her knowledge and extensive experience in the TV and communications world and engaged the students in discussions about the business.  Students asked great questions and both women were very generous with their time.  Thank you Ms. Stephanos and Ms. Spear for taking the time out of your busy day to bring real-world experience to WHS students.  SO FUN!!
