3rd quarter progress reports will be sent home on Wednesday, February 8th. Please reach out to any staff members if you have questions about your child's grades.

Our goal is to meet with each and every family at WHS this school year.

What will this look like? Each family will get to meet with a teacher representative at one of the parent teacher conference nights this year. During this time, we want to discuss current academic goals and progress, activity involvement, interests, and plans for after high school. We also want to give you the opportunity to provide us with your feedback and suggestions.

If you have not already had a conference, please anticipate an invitation from a WHS staff member for a conference this year. We look forward to meeting with you on our campus and strengthening the partnerships between the school and home. If you would like to request a conference during this last session in March, please fill out the following form.

Families that are in our student management system will get one-call notifications automatically. If you have other family members or community members that would like to receive notifications and information from the school please use the link below to sign up.

Simply click the Wilmington City Schools option listed under Other Schools and you want to select the building(s) of choice.

National School Counseling Week is Feb. 6-10. We are excited to recognize the work of our school counselors, Mr. Williams, Mrs. Groves, and Mrs. Martin.

Just a reminder that the HS building doors open at 7:38 for student to enter the building. Please plan accordingly for the weather conditions.

We will continue hallway sweeps this semester. This means we will ask all teachers to close their door and allow administrators and hallway staff to speak with any students who are found in the hallways during that time. The goal of these sweeps is to help ensure that students are in their assigned classes in order for students to engage in academic instruction. Also, being able to manage and monitor student movement throughout the building is a large part of school safety. Thank you for your understanding and support.
