IMPORTANT WCHS GRADUATION UPDATE!
Graduation on May 28th will be held outside on the football field starting at 6:30 pm. This will provide us with the opportunity to have our graduates not wear a mask during the ceremony since seating will be 6 feet apart. Although no ticket is required, we ask that family members sit together and social distance themselves from other families. Graduates are to meet in the cafeteria between 5:30 - 5:45 pm wearing a mask.
If the weather forecast reports are revealing storms, an announcement will be sent out Friday at 9:00 AM to switch to inside.
