Well done to our varsity soccer teams. Both finished the season as 46th District Champions and 12th Region Runner-up. Wonderful post season runs! Great job Colts!
Sunshine, fresh air, cheer, dance, band, football, and some powder puff for the WIN! Some of the teachers even got in on the fun with a dance to Thunderstruck! Nothing like a pep rally on the field to hype up the Colts for the cross-town rivalry game tonight vs. the Jaguars! Let's go WEST!
Colts Win!!! Both the boys and girls soccer teams advance to the 12th Region finals tomorrow.
The teams are a combined 22 goals for 0 goals against. The men beat Boyle on their home field and the ladies have mercy ruled both opponents before half time. Go Colts!
Heading into the weekend, proud to be Colts!🐴

The West Work Ethic continues throughout October. So many amazing things go on in our building, but our students continue to exhibit strong work habits and diligence in the tasks set before them in their JCTC courses as well!
Pictured below are students in the Fashion Pathway at JCTC. Students from WJHS worked on pillowcase sewing projects in FCS Essentials and tote bag sewing projects in Fashion & Interior Design I. They showed true attention to detail and the ability to get the job done to generate a finished product!
Additionally, Dr. Ruda would like to acknowledge work ethic as our first Exceptional Employer Evaluations have been received! Though evals are still rolling in, we wanted to start early with the celebrations! Congrats to all!
