Physical Education is a 4-year High School Graduation requirement so all students have to take PE. Some students who participate in varsity sports may have the option to count their participation towards their PE requirement during the term they compete. If you are eligible, your coach will have this information.  

The All School Council as well as each Grade Level Council Executive Boards consist of an elected President, Vice President, Parliamentarian, Treasurer, and Secretary. 

Find more information about the All School Council.

Your parents should have received two emails in mid May describing how to access your accounts. If you can not find them, you can email parentconnect@whrhs.org for more information.

When you use email, you will be able to search for teachers and other students in our school directory using their names. 

Students should bring their school issued Chromebooks to school everyday. Other devices will not be configured to access the wireless network.

The summer reading assignment is now posted on the district website.
