It was a great week at WGHS! Students and staff are settling into their routines as we close out the first 5 weeks of school. This week students participated in a student-led spirit week, dressing with a different theme/color each day. It was wonderful to see so many of our students join in on the fun!
The WGHS Pep Rally was a success!
Please join us in thanking Maura Secor, Kristin Good, and all of our STUCO members who designed, organized, and made the pep rally a huge success. Grace Lannon and Kylee Barry deserve a special shout out for doing an incredible job leading the event!! This was our very first pep rally outside, and we couldn’t have asked for better weather. Staff participated in an intense game of Minute to Win It, and students crushed it during a wild game of Family Feud! Huge thank you to Cameron Reina who stepped up and did an incredible job as our DJ! Also, Julia Klaczko who kept the energy high as our wildcat! Thank you to all of the performers who worked so hard to make this a great event!
Safety Protocols:
Just a friendly reminder as the cool weather starts to roll in, and we are holding more indoor events, all visitors to the high school must follow the building mask mandates. Students, staff, and any visitors must wear a properly fitted mask (covers your mouth and nose) at all times. I know our students are hopeful to have spectators at our various building events, and this will only be possible if we are able to count on everyone to arrive wearing a mask and keep it on the entire time they are in the building. Thank you very much for your cooperation.
WGHS Class of 2022 Make-A-Wish Fundraiser
Each year, the Senior Class hosts a Harvest Dinner where the students work as servers and bakers. Due to the pandemic, we have yet again decided to postpone this event. However, children still need our support!
We are raising money for Make-A-Wish to help grant wishes for children with critical illnesses. No matter the circumstances, every child deserves a childhood. Life-changing wishes wouldn't happen without the power of donors like you. Your support gives children much-needed hope for brighter days ahead. For 35 years, Make-A-Wish Central New York has brought transformational wishes to more than 1,900 local children and families. But we're not done yet.
Your donation today will help make every wish come true. Together, we can continue to be a light of hope throughout this time of uncertainty--and beyond. Last year, our amazing community made it possible for us to give more than ever before, and we thank you from the bottom of our hearts. Please help us to meet and maybe even to surpass last year's donation! Thank you for your support of our annual dinner and for your support right now!

In addition to donating online, students and staff will have the opportunity to support the cause every Thursday during the month of October. The Senior Class will be selling pizza after school by the main entrance for $2 per slice and all proceeds go to the Make-A-Wish Foundation! Our first week was a huge success! Finally, mark your calendars for our first ever WGHS Trunk or Treat event! We have been missing our Halloween Carnival, but with safety in mind, we are moving things outdoors for Trunk or Treat! We can’t wait to see all of the kiddos in their costumes. See the flyer for details!We hope you all enjoy the long weekend!
Sincerely,
Tracy Klefbeck, Thomas Vaughan, Greg Lawson, Dana Eells
