We had a great first week of school last week!
We started the day with welcoming students back on the Red Carpet, where students were greeted with high fives from teachers and staff for their first day of school!
Everyone then went to the gym where we held our first Rally! Students were recognized for taking AP or Honors classes last year, taking summer school classes, and working jobs over the summer. We played some games before going into our first day.
After a shortened schedule, sophomores, juniors, and seniors left, and the freshmen had their Freshmen Orientation hosted by the Coyote Crew. Freshmen had a presentation of school rules, took a tour of the school, played games with their freshmen teams, and did team-building activities in the gym.
On Friday, we held our Commitment to Graduation (C2G) ceremony. Freshmen were given a short presentation by a WHS alum and then walked the stage to sign their name on the Class of 2029 C2G banner.
