Fun Facts for the Week.

This week is National School Lunch Week

Don’t forget to say “thank you” to those people who work to provide us with school lunches. 

—---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Also we have a fun fact from the Guidance Department

 

October is College Application Month. Seniors, when you apply to a college, show your senior English teacher your completed application or email confirmation so your name can be placed in a drawing for prizes. We will begin drawing this week and will continue for the month of October. 

 

Each Tuesday for the month of October, the counseling department encourages all faculty and students to wear their college gear. Let's put our favorite colleges on display! 

 

We will also have activities each Tuesday during 2nd period. This will be a competition and prizes will be given! 

 

We will have our College and Career Fair on October 24th from 10:30 am to 1:30 pm on the Rebel Boardwalk. College recruiters, Military Personnel, LOSFA, and Businesses from all over Louisiana and surrounding states will be here to visit with you! Make plans to attend! 

 

—---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Also, speaking of “fun,” the ROTC program is always up to something interesting.

 

Any student wanting to become a member of the WMHS ROTC program, please be advised that there is still time and room available for you to join. 

 

ROTC is a great program to learn life skills that will help you become citizens of character and attain skills that will build self-confidence needed to succeed in life. 

 

If interested, please see LT. Colonel Hart or Tech Sgt Campbell for further information. 

 

The deadline for joining will be this Thursday.
