Supports for Students

Students at WHS have access to a number of supports to help them navigate high school, succeed academically, and address social-emotional concerns. Students should contact their school counselor if they need assistance accessing any of these supports.


Tutoring

A staff member is available before and after school in the library to assist students with homework, organization, and study skills. Peer tutoring will begin in the next couple of weeks as well.


Math and Writing Labs

During the school day, students can access the Math or Writing Lab for assistance with classwork, college essays, and more.


Counseling

In addition to meetings with their school counselor, students can access our at-risk intervention specialist, school adjustment counselors, and social worker for individual counseling.
