ANNOUNCEMENTS

* Another Successful 2024 WYAA-WYHS Career Fair *

On March 1, 30 companies, organizations, educational & public service representatives partipated in our 6th WYHS-WYAA Career Fair.  Every year, WYHS junior & seniors get the opportunity to meet & talk to various business & public service representatives about jobs & careers that 
DON'T Require 4-year college degrees! 
 

We know that WYHS Career Fairs can help change a student's future after graduation.  WYHS students attending career fairs have become great employees at FedEx, Home Depot, Legoland, State Farm, military, etc.  At last year's Career Fair, Emmet Carter, 2023, met National Guard recruiter Sgt. Bell.  It was thrilling to see Emmet at this year's career fair in a National Guard uniform with his recruiter!  To see the list of companies at this year's fair, go to the WYAA Events tab on the left column.

THANKS to Superintendent Dr. Sharee Wells for her vision & guidance to compete & enable WYHS & Rosemore Middle School to join 2 of only 626 middle & high schools nationwide to be selected for Verizon Innovative Learning Schools!

Here's a portion of the March 7, 2024 Verizon Press Release.
"WHITEHALL, Ohio – Today, Whitehall City School District joins Verizon Innovative Learning, Verizon’s award-winning education initiative which addresses barriers to digital inclusion. In partnership with Digital Promise, the Verizon Innovative Learning Schools program works side-by-side with schools and districts to provide free technology devices, access to the internet, and innovative STEM learning programs, giving students in under-resourced schools the technology, education, and opportunity they deserve. Being part of the program will keep students connected, helping to facilitate learning wherever it’s taking place.

"When we first joined Digital Promise, I had a chance to see the Verizon Innovative Learning Schools program firsthand in California, I knew right away that this was a program that I wanted to bring to the staff and students in Whitehall. I am so excited and grateful to Verizon for having the vision to address the digital divide in communities like ours and I'm overjoyed that our middle and high schools will be a part of Cohort 11. The resources, professional development, and coaching are going to be a great addition to our academic program and will allow us to continue to take our district to new heights!" - Dr. Sharee Wells, Superintendent Whitehall City Schools"

The official WCS Anouncement Event is Thursday, March 14, 2024 @ 6pm in the WYHS Library.
