As the first quarter of our 2017-18 school year comes to an end, I wanted to do my part to give new freshmen on campus my best advice for surviving — and even enjoying — their years in high school.
The start of a new school year always brings about changes: new classes, new teachers, and a new sleep schedule. This year, Wa-Hi also welcomed a new principal.
All Senior photos and quotes are due this Friday, Oct 27.
Wa-Hi’s Go BLUE Students of the Month are nominated and selected based on their hard work and motivation in and out of the classroom.
