Earlier And Later...


Perhaps you have heard this already, but I wanted to be certain that you knew that this coming year WKHS will be functioning on a new schedule. There will no longer be blocks and "A/B" days. Classes will meet on a daily basis for a single period. The other big change with regard to the schedule is the time of the school day. We will now start earlier and end later. (By 5 minutes in each direction.) Below is a breakdown of the bell schedule.


1st Period: 7:45 - 8:35

2nd Period: 8:40 - 9:30

3rd Period: 9:35 - 10:25

Announcements: 10:25 - 10:29

4th Period: 10:35 - 11:25

5th Period: 11:30 - 12:20

6th Period: 12:25 - 1:15

7th Period: 1:20 - 2:10

8th Period: 2:15 - 3:05


Lunches will still be during 4th, 5th, 6th, and 7th periods.


Believe me, I love sleep as much as you do and hit the snooze button daily, but this will allow more time in each class which helps balance those classes that might need the extra time and still gets us out of school at a reasonable time for everyone participating in co-curricular activities.


I hope you have a great weekend!
