Interested in WJHS Boys Volleyball? The KHSAA Inaugural Season is coming soon! Tryouts are listed below!
Our staff highlight this week is a true gift to us all, no matter the season! Mr. Daughterty currently works alongside Mrs. Elliott in our front office, greeting parents and guests, making announcements and educating us all day long. He does so as a volunteer and expects nothing in return. His reliability, wisdom, and loyalty are second to none! He graduated from JCHS in 1967 and has been at WJHS "since it came into being" (in his own words). He was at Jessamine County Junior High and Jessamine County High School for 34 years prior to that teaching Political Science, World Civilization, Law & Justice and World Geography. Ms. Elliott says he has worked alongside her since 2006 and she has loved every moment! Mr. D says his favorite thing about West High is the sense of loyalty he feels to the school and the ability to work with such an incredible staff, some of those he was blessed to teach. We are so appreciative that Mr. Daughterty is a Colt!
It's a busy week for West High sports! We'd love to see you at a game or competition!
Kicking off our Monday with some positivity and a giving spirit! Our National Honor Society students spread some warmth last week by crafting blankets for the veterans at Thomson-Hood Veterans' Center. ❤️ They plan to deliver them this week! We love the giving spirit of our students!
