Mission Statement:

 

The WHS Renaissance Program is threefold.  For the students, the focus is to encourage and reward their academic performance, involvement in school activities, increased attendance, and positive behavior.  The second part of this program is to recognize and thank staff members for their daily endeavors and specific accomplishments. The final area is to raise the level of community participation in our school. This mission would exchange merchant and student ideas for the common goal of community pride.

The Invitation:

 

This program is part of the Jostens Group. We purchase our yearbooks from this company.  The Renaissance Program is a value-added service provided by Jostens. We as a school need not to buy a thing.  All we need to do is to buy into the proposition that when it comes to our students we can, we must, do better.

 

Jostens Renaissance program is a powerful program that is FREE. In fact, they gave us $2,000 to launch the program. It is proven, innovative and a very energetic program. We invite you and anyone you know to get involved.  There is something for everyone to do.  Take the time to visit their website at Jostens.com

 

Students, staff, parents and the community working together is key to making this program an awesome future for WHS and the town in which it makes its home. Please take part!!!!!!!!!
