Faculty Monthly Meetings: Support our school’s faculty by providing food and drinks for the Faculty Monthly Meetings, usually held the second Thursday of the month. Volunteers contribute as often as is convenient at the volunteers’ discretion. Many hands make light work. Volunteers receive a sign-up genius one week prior to the event, and then must drop off their chosen item at WHS by 2pm of the specified day.
Contacts: Susan Calcio and Susan Bannon
New Parent Ambassador Program: Working with the Guidance Department, the goal is to help new families become familiar with the WHS community as well as school practices, policies and procedures.

Landscaping Committee: Green thumbs not required! Landscaping volunteers make a difference beautifying WHS. Whatever you can do, from small jobs to larger ones, it will be appreciated!
