WHS students celebrating Hispanic Heritage Week!!

📚✨ College Application Day at WHS! ✨📚 Today, our senior students are taking the next big step in their educational journey as they apply for colleges and explore various career options. 🌟 Haley Jeanotte, our High School Career Counselor, has been the driving force behind this day-long event. Special thanks to our Grade 12 English Teachers, Tawnia Cummings and Anne Rauschendorfer, for hosting and guiding our students throughout the day in their classrooms. We had fantastic support from Williston State College, North Dakota State University, University of Jamestown, Dickinson State University and Minot State University, who were on hand to assist our students with their college applications and answer their questions. In addition, our students had access to the RUReadyND program on a giant touch-screen monitor, providing them with insights into various careers and work-based learning opportunities available on the website - secure.ruready.nd.gov/ As a fantastic bonus, Bank of North Dakota generously covered the cost of one college application per student. 🙌 A big thank you to everyone involved in making College Application Day a success! 🎓📝
