Does your family bank at GESA Credit Union?
If YES - please consider getting the official WV RAMS Debit Card (it only takes 5 minutes in the branch) and using it to show your RAM PRIDE!
Even better, GESA makes a donation to WVHS every time this card gets used - what a partnership!
Looking to Volunteer?
Volunteering is a great way to explore possible careers, help in your community and build your resume for future interviews and applications.
Try using Volunteer Match to find local opportunities!
VOLUNTEER HOURS!
If you have already volunteered with Catholic Charities in the past, go to https://givepul.se/02iwql to sign up for various activities.
If you haven't volunteered with them before, please email Ms. Becki Lambert at: blambert@catholiccharitiescw.org for an application.
VOLUNTEENS is looking to connect HS students with local organizations who need volunteers. They organize an event once a month (on Saturdays) and you can decide which ones to attend. Go here to register and sign up to get the information!
WVHS CLUBS!
Need to add money to your lunch account?

YOU NEED YOUR SCHOOL ID or ASB EVERY DAY! If you don't have one and need it - $5 to replace it.
Carry the Card in your wallet or phone case.
Get the Skyward App so you can use the photo ID in the app (see How To Do HS Things for help.)
Take a picture of your card that you can easily find and use.
For some events the ACTUAL CARD is required, so best practice is to have it with you at all times.
If the office lets you go to get something from your car - DON'T ABUSE THAT PRIVILEDGE. Get back in less than 10 minutes and don't make it a habit. Thank You!
REMINDER: WVHS is a closed campus (see handbook). Students are not allowed to check-out for lunch. We do not allow food delivery services on campus during the school day.
