The Giving Room
The STARS and Key Clubs will be sponsoring a drive to stock the newly formed “Giving Room” here at WMHS. The drive will run from Monday, March 15 to Friday, March 19. This is the time students will be asking around for donations to provide for grade level challenges.
The Giving Room will be home for a food pantry, clothes closet and school supply room. During the drive we will be accepting food (targeting foods that our students can easily eat/prepare), new or like new clothing, new shoes (no used ones), and school/digital supplies. Thank you in advance for your assistance. All items will be free to our students.
We will end our drive with a “drive thru” drop off for the community on Saturday, March 20 from 9 AM – Noon in the back parking lot of the school (by the cafeteria).

This is a reminder that mid-term grades for the 3rd nine weeks ended on Feb. 24, so be sure check your child’s mid-term grades on Schoology. Every parent/guardian should have a parent access code. If you do not, you can have your child log onto their Schoology and show you the grades, or call the school and request the parent access code. We will not be printing and sending home mid-term grades, so be sure to check on your child’s progress. The 3rd Nine Weeks Grading Period Ends March 26.
Reminders for Feb. 24th
- Senior Pictures and any students needing to get their school picture taken will be completed from 10-2 in the middle school gym. Senior Portraits will be completed first.
Also, this is the mid-term for the 3rd nine weeks. Announcements will be made to inform parents, and students when grading is completed. You will be able to access your child's grades through your parent account or you can have your student bring up their grades on their Schoology account.
