Our GREAT KINDNESS CHALLENGE went well during the week! Thank you to every Period 3 teacher for helping with this as well as ALL Faculty and Staff! ASB and teacher Ardy Riego were WONDERFUL in their support and LEADERSHIP!
Here are some photos of terrific WHHS students participating in the week...
"Marking our list and checking it twice"...Constantine was "all in" as he made "Thank you" notes and beautiful drawings to faculty, Admin and the Superintendent.
Students enjoy "Dreaming of a better world..." in their PJs....
Celebrate American Heroes Day...wear Red, White and Blue ...go Class of 2021!!
Mission Accomplished at the Board Meeting Monday, 1/22...The Board unanimously approved the naming of our gym after Dave Hunter. Thank you to all for your support and those who attended the meeting to support our petition! Particular love and respect to Mr. Bob Guess, first Principal as he joined us at the meeting.
In addition, our School Resource Officer, Deputy Marcos Collins and his fellow SROs were recognized for their dedication and service with our schools. We are very PROUD of Deputy Collins and his wonderful work with West Hills students, parents, faculty and staff! That old saying "You can't keep a good man..." rings true. We are very sad to announce that he has accepted a promotion to Juvenile Detective in the Vista Sheriff office and his last day at WHHS will be February 12. Please join us in wishing him well throughout the day in the main office...we are VERY SAD to see you go Deputy Collins, but you will be a wonderful addition to the youth and community in Vista!
And lastly for this week...big THANK YOU to our ART students and Mr. VanDyke for continuing to beautify our Admin walls...love the art and the display of students work in WL -7 available on various student lunch times during the week!
Wednesday, February 7, 5;30 p.m., Freshman Showcase: This is our best opportunity for recruiting incoming 9th graders! We thank everyone who can and will attend to engage community members in "choosing" West Hills! Having open classrooms, being warm and welcoming all will make that awesome Wolf Pack first impression!
