Thank you for your commitment in helping to implement this continuous quality improvement strategy. Your input will help ensure a quality education for all business students at West Hall High School.
Student ID Badges All students at all grade levels are required to wear ID badges to school. These badges are making WHHS an even safer school.
All overdue fines for ID Badges must be paid in order to receive new ones or disciplinary action could result. The school will not be making money on the badges, but we are trying to operate with no debt owed. We issue one ID a year at no cost to the student but when they lose, forget, or damage their ID, we must issue new ones at cost for security reasons.
If you have questions or concerns, please call or email the West Hall Administration.
Regular School Hours School hours are from 8:30 a.m. until 3:30 p.m.
STUDENTS MUST BE IN A SCHEDULED SUPERVISED ACTIVITY TO REMAIN ON CAMPUS AFTER 3:30 PM. |
