School Closure Updates

Welcome Class of 2024

  • To the incoming Freshmen of the Class of 2024 and their families: we want for you to know that you have not been forgotten. Even though the end of this school year has been disrupted by Covid-19, we are still working behind the scenes to make sure that we are ready to welcome you in September. To that end, we plan on holding virtual school orientations so that we can make introductions. During the week of 5/25 a staff member from WHSAD will call you with more details. If you don’t hear from us by 5/29, please email our parent coordinator, Ms. Chu, at chu@WHSAD.org.
