A group of West High students are visiting Washington DC this week, with Mr. Botts.
Yesterday West's Colin Cox was selected to honor our veterans by laying a wreath at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier.

Advanced Placement (AP) scored were released this week and West High students once again killed it!
- Over 400 AP tests were given to our students, in 20 different subjects.
- WJHS scored above the Kentucky and Global averages in 14 of those 20 and above either the KY or Global average in 3 others.
- Overall, 77% of our students scored a 3 or higher (passing score) on their exam.
Well done AP students and our instructors!
Nothing says summer cleaning like the smell of fresh wax! Shout out to our custodial crew who is making sure West High is ready for the new school year, in just over a month!
They detail every piece of furniture and remove it from the classrooms, scrub every floor, stairs, bathroom, lay fresh wax, and even give the gym for a facelift.
Thank you, Colt Custodians!
West Families, Remind is gone and Parent Square is coming! Look for an activation email on July 28th.
The only thing you need to do for now is make sure your high school students cell number is updated in IC, so that they can receive the direct communications. See the graphic below for how to update that information through your IC Parent Portal.
