This day of fun is open to all seniors who have met the attendance requirement for participation in school related activities. Students must demonstrate a 90% attendance rate in each class period in order to participate. Both excused and unexcused absences, and absences due to suspensions will count against this attendance requirement; however, absences due to school sponsored trips and/or activities are not counted as absences toward this policy. Should you have any questions, please call Mrs. Bishop at 633-3100 ext. 109.

Senior Trip

Here is the itinerary  for the 2008 Graduation Celebration:

Grad Night

Seniors: Grad Night is soon approaching (Graduation Evening – Friday, June 6th from 10:00 p.m. – 5:00 a.m.).  Pay your $50.00 admission fee soon to Mrs. Embree in the main office.  We only have four students signed up & paid for so far.  The deadline is Friday, May 30th.

This year Grad Night will be held @ Nu Generations Bowling Alley in Yuba City. Check in is from 10:00pm – 11:00pm. This is a lock down so the only way that you can leave grad night early is with verbal parent permission. This safe & sober graduation party will be filled with food, drinks, bowling, games, cash, prizes, & much more. Buy your bid now. (WHS Grad Night Committee) Any questions see Mrs. Embree!!
