AP Grind Season is here.💪🧠
Yesterday, AP Language & Composition students completed their first fully timed FRQ #2: Rhetorical Analysis — one of the toughest writing tasks on the AP Exam. In 40 minutes, they analyzed a 750-word nonfiction text and crafted a 4–5 paragraph essay using direct evidence, scored by the official College Board rubric. And that’s just one of three essays in a 2 hour, 15 minute exam. 😲
They’ve been building toward this since August. In a few weeks, they’ll take a full mock exam, and on May 13, 89 students will sit for the official AP English Language & Composition Exam.
Behind the scenes, many are balancing activities, jobs, family, and multiple AP courses. Late nights. Timed writes. Revision. Growth.
This is dedication. This is perseverance. We are so proud of our students rising to the challenge and earning college credit while still in high school.

Last week, Officer Wade joined Mrs. Foster’s forensic science class for some hands-on learning! 🕵️♂️👣 Students headed outside to study shoe imprints and learned how investigators track suspects using prints left behind. Thank you, Officer Wade, for making learning real-world and engaging!

🧬 In Ms. Davenport’s AP Biology classes, students put their problem-solving skills to the test during a virtual breakout activity focused on DNA replication!
Working together, they analyzed clues, applied their knowledge, and unlocked each step of the replication process — proving science learning can be both challenging and fun. Great teamwork and critical thinking in action at WJHS! #graduateprofile #criticalthinking

Even more impressive — with Ariana reaching this milestone, all five members of the WJHS Lady Colts starting lineup have now surpassed 1,000 career points! What a special group of athletes and teammates who continue to leave their mark on our program.
