As we approach December, I thought this would be a great time to collect parent feedback about WHS and how you are feeling, as well as what you are hearing from your children. Since day one this year, I have made it a point to talk with teachers and students about the importance of mental health and student wellness. We, as school community, need to keep in mind and listen to our young adults and understand what they are dealing with and the difficulties they may be experiencing. I have created a survey that I am asking WHS parents/guardians to complete so I can hear your voice in this matter. Please take some time to answer a few questions and have your voice be heard.

There will be additional homework free breaks throughout the year which will be published by the District in the coming days. We hope these days will provide students time to mentally step away from focusing on homework and studying for tests. In addition to no homework for the week, no assignments or tests will be due immediately after the break. I am aware of one or two situations where long term projects were assigned over a month ago with dues dates during next week. Those assignments will still be due; however, during all future homework free weeks, there will be no assignments/tests. What you could do with the TIME .... Students can read just to read for the joy of it Spend time enjoying the great fall weather Spend time with family Volunteer within the community Ta...
