Congratulations to our Teacher of the Year for 2016-17 Mrs. Jamie Gwyn!
Please join me in congratulating Jamie for being selected our Teacher of the Year for 2016-17! Comments from her nomination include "She is a dedicated, passionate and terrific teacher with her students, always focusing on health and life-long fitness". Another colleague commented "Jamie does so much with our HOWL program and really works with both our HOWL leaders and freshmen to make West Hills a great school!" In addition to these classroom efforts, Mrs. Gwyn has written grants trying to get funds to replace aging equipment, been a class co-adviser, served on District committees and supports continuous life-long learning!

We are very proud and pleased to celebrate all of our teachers and particularly Jamie Gwyn!
