WELCOME BACK to WHS!
As we dive into the school year, let’s embrace the challenges and joys that come with learning. Together, we can create a supportive and inspiring environment for everyone. Here’s to a fantastic school year ahead!
HOT TOPIC: SWIPE K-12
We appreciate the support from families and students as we implement the Swipe K-12 program. Your engagement is crucial during this transition period, and we are grateful for your patience and understanding.
As we begin rolling out the program, we recognize that the initial days may present some challenges. Rest assured that we are actively working to address any issues and refine the system to ensure a smooth experience for everyone involved. Your feedback is invaluable in helping us identify areas for improvement.
We must take a moment to recognize and commend each student for their incredible patience and unwavering effort this morning!
Our administration team has already met to begin debriefing arrival procedures and changes will be made to streamline the process on Tuesday morning.
STUDENTS, HERE IS HOW YOU CAN HELP!
Know your Student ID Number! This number is your PowerSchool Student ID Number. You may type it on the Swipe Station keypads.
If you are typing in your number on the keypad, PRESS FIRMLY! Many students are used to the sensitive touchscreens of smartphones. The keypad keys are not as sensitive to touch. This morning, many students had to re-enter their pin several times to capture all numbers.
If you have your ID CARD, have it out and ready to scan! Swipe Stations have two scanners which allows multiple people to scan in simultaneously.

In short, we love our school! We would not implement something that is not in the best interest of the overall safety of our students.
Even with the recognition of the slower start this morning, we found many perks with using this program to support student safety!
