WHS Summer News (July 2014)

Summer day flying kites 

I hope everyone is enjoying their time away from WHS.  I wanted to share a few things with all of you as July comes to an end.

• This summer I will be writing a blog series titled, “Before School Starts – To Do List” for students and parents.  The series will have 8 - 10 blog posts associated with it. The first post was published on 7/28.  

Before School Starts TO DO LIST #1 Fall Athletes get your paperwork IN

• All classrooms at the HS have been cleaned and put back together.  The custodians really did a great job.
• The technology infrastructure project is moving along at a good pace.  At the HS/MS complex, the MS wiring is almost complete and work on the HS should begin later this week.  
• The HS Gym renovation is complete.  You can see before and after pictures here: http://whsprincipal.blogspot.com/2014/07/hs-gym-transformation.html
• Supply orders, equipment, textbooks, etc. have all been coming in throughout the summer.
• All of the open teaching positions have been filled.  We will have five new teachers on staff with us in September.
