There’s a reason why us teenagers are not already living on our own. We need you, our parents and guardians to keep us safe. Prom and graduation are exciting times where celebration is important, yet there are plenty of ways to go about this without substance use. As a parent/guardian you can help us stay safe by being aware and checking on us using a variety of methods…knowing where we are, talking with us about decision making, having a plan before we go to an event, and not supplying us with illegal substances. Please help us make Prom and graduation memorable not regrettable.
Student Council members are doing a great job fundraising for a very worthy cause. You may remember hearing about a community fundraiser last year that enabled John DeDeau to return to his homeland in the Congo and build a school. We have recently found out that only the boys are attending since the girls have the job of walking many miles a day to carry water back to the village. The community is once again raising money so that John can purchase well equipment that will travel to multiple villages to drill wells. With a simple coin drop and lots of encouragement, the middle school students have already raised over $500! Students are emptying piggy banks, bringing in birthday money and encouraging each other to contribute. Great job everyone! Let's keep up the momentum!
May 15th, 16th and 17th Join us in the Middle School Gym Open at night on May 15th & May 16th Open During the School Day - May 16th & May 17th Music on both nights by WUHSMS musicians.
This year will be the 18th year of the High School ArtShow. We promise that the artwork (and music) will dazzle, amuse, nourish, and feed your soul!
