THIS WEEK AT WEST RANCH September 16th through September 20th |

Principal’s Message: September 15, 2024
Good afternoon Wildcats,
I hope everyone had an outstanding weekend! As a reminder, 5 week progress grades will be available in the infinite campus parent portal by 3pm tomorrow. Any student who needs extra academic support is encouraged to talk to there teacher or stop by the Homework Hub at lunch or the library after school. We have student tutors, teachers, and instructional assistants who are available for extra help if needed.
Club Rush will be taking place this week on Wednesday during brunch. I encourage all Wildcats to get involved and join at least one club this year. Club participation is a great way for students to build a sense of school community and to be able to explore interests outside of the classroom.
Students who purchased school pictures will get them in class this week. Pictures will be given to 3rd period teachers to distribute this week. Pictures that were taken on 9/11 will be distributed once we receive them. Have a tremendous week!
Sincerely, Robert Fisher Principal, West Ranch High School |
