It's Jammies Day for Cohort A today (Cohort B-tomorrow)! We'll try to get some Crazy Hair/Crazy Socks pictures. Remember, costumes on Wed. and Thurs. (follow rules in previous post). Have fun Warriors!
Please read the press release from our Superintendent Dr. Jensen regarding news of positive cases today. HCSD continue to have strong cleaning protocols in place and the safety of our students and staff remain our top priority. Please remember to practice social distancing, wear masks, and stay home if you or a family member are ill.
Lifetouch will take photos on Wednesday, Oct. 7th and Thursday, Oct. 8th. There was a misprint on the flyer and students were asked to correct to the 7th and 8th.

School finally begins after 176 days away! Cohort B students have brought us a wonderful start to our year! We can't wait to meet Cohort A students tomorrow!
Parents and students, we're thrilled to be able to finally see you and meet you! We know that learning in person and via technology tools may make some feel anxious. We have a website for parents and students to see some of the tech tools we'll use at WJHS. There are tutorial videos ready to give you an overview of how each works. If you'd like a headstart to learning how you can use your Chromebook and all the amazing apps, head to: https://wjhs.rocks/DL2020
If you haven't signed Chromebook permissions yet or signed up for a time next week to pick up your device, it's not too late!

The census is safe, easy and important. It takes less than 10 minutes to fill out (online: census.nv.gov; by phone: Eng: 844.330.2020/ Spanish: (844) 468.2020; or by mail) and ensures our community and state receive our fair share of federal funding ($20,000 per Nevadan)! The Census form WILL NOT ask for info such as a resident’s social security number, citizenship status, credit card or bank information, donations, political party affiliation or anything regarding the 2020 election.

Every Nevadan who is counted earns our state $20,000 federal funding over the next ten years. This helps our state receive funding for health care services, education, roads, etc. Let’s keep federal funds in Nevada!
