WFHS Weekly Update - Week of April 29th |
|
Good evening WFHS Students and Families, Parking deck safety – Families of students who drive and park on campus please be reminded that safety is a priority. We have had several complaints recently and want to remind everyone of the importance of safe driving as well as the importance of being aware of your surroundings while in the parking lots. Senior Dues Reminder – Senior Dues for the Class of 2024 are $60.00 and are collected to cover diploma covers and graduation cost. All financial obligations must be taken care of before seniors will receive graduation tickets. This fee does not include cap, gowns, and tassels.
Panorama Family Survey WCPSS is administering a Family Survey from April 8-May 17. The survey provides families the opportunity to provide valuable information used for planning and School Improvement. We believe your feedback is important for creating and strengthening our partnership with families. Helping students do their best in school requires a team effort. Parents, students, and schools all play important roles in this process. Help us make your child's school experience as positive and beneficial as possible by giving honest, thoughtful responses to the questions in our family survey. The link to access the survey is: http://surveys.panoramaed.com/wakecounty/family. Student Services News If your student is signing up for Wake Tech CCP classes, they should be turning in an Early Release/Late Arrival form by the end of the school year. As well as a Dual Enrollment form by the start of next school year. 12th graders only can ALSO turn in the Early Release/Late Arrival form for reasons other than Wake Tech CCP. Seniors- Have you been awarded a scholarship? Regardless of whether you are accepting it or not, you should submit the scholarship to WCPSS. Please do this by filling out the google form linked. Or by emailing Aburger@wcpss.net with the scholarship name, school/organization it is from, amount, if it is renewable, and if they are accepting it or not.
