Before the school year ended, all students were required to turn in their laptops to the Media Center. Many students have not yet done this. To avoid fines, and follow up phone calls about the status of the laptop, students should drop their laptops off at the Main Office at West High as soon as possible.

West High School Summer School will be for all students who are behind with their graduation credit requirements. Any students who have failed a class should plan on attending.

Dates: Wednesday, June 1 – Wednesday, June 28, 2023

Time: 8:15 a.m. – 12:15 p.m.

Location: West High Media Center

Transportation & Lunch: Transportation, breakfast, and lunch will be available

The 2023-2024 Schedule is still being created. Student schedules will not be ready for review by students and families until mid to late July. When schedules are ready for viewing, additional communication will be shared.

All 2023-2024 West High students will have an opportunity to meet with their counselor regarding schedule change requests, as well as for laptop checkout on August 9 and 10.

At West High our counselors loop with their grade level class throughout all four years, and students identified as TAG will loop with Mrs. Still. As students and families have questions, please contact the counselor for that student's grade level, or the TAG counselor, either by email, or by leaving a voicemail for that counselor.

Our team invites parents and guardians to connect with them anytime throughout the school year so we can partner with you as we guide our students to success. All are welcome to call West High School to schedule an appointment, or email the grade level administrator directly:
