Parents:
The Health Department will be at WHS on Oct 23rd in the afternoon (around 12:30) to administer flu vaccinations to any student that would like to receive one. Flu permission forms have been sent home. If you want your student to get the flu vaccine, your student must return the signed permission form to Nurse Sullivan by Oct 6th . No forms will be accepted after the cut-off date.
Parents do NOT return the form if you do not want your child to receive the Flu vaccine. It is the parent's responsibility to notify the school nurse if you choose to get the vaccine for your student elsewhere so we can pull their permission form.
Our Teacher of the Week is Mrs. Hennington! This journalism teacher has made a huge impact at WHS already this year leading students to make several hype videos. She has done an amazing job improving school spirit too.
This week we celebrated students who received high scores on their End of Course Tests in May. We love to see their hard work and dedication pay off.
Boys' basketball conditioning will start on Tuesday, September 5th right after school by Coach Dyer's office.
