It is with great sadness that WHS must announce the passing of one of our students who was in an accident last night. We will have local clergy and school counselors available in the high school auditorium all day today for students in need. We have contacted the Region 16 Crisis Team to assist in the upcoming days as needed. If we can do anything for you or your child, please feel free to reach out to us.
