In the spring we celebrated Layne's perfect score of 36 on the ACT. Today we learned he was one of only 62 students in the state to gain that accomplishment. Way to go Layne!!


The West Work Ethic continues throughout October. So many amazing things go on in our building, but our students continue to exhibit strong work habits and diligence in the tasks set before them in their JCTC courses as well!
Pictured below are students in the Fashion Pathway at JCTC. Students from WJHS worked on pillowcase sewing projects in FCS Essentials and tote bag sewing projects in Fashion & Interior Design I. They showed true attention to detail and the ability to get the job done to generate a finished product!
Additionally, Dr. Ruda would like to acknowledge work ethic as our first Exceptional Employer Evaluations have been received! Though evals are still rolling in, we wanted to start early with the celebrations! Congrats to all!
