After School for today (Oct 26) is going to continue as planned. Jr High GBB will be at WHS Gym.
After collaboration with law enforcement, the Secure Mode has been lifted for Whitehorse High School. While protocols minimize disruptions to the learning environment, we encourage you to check in with your scholar after school today. Thank you for your continued support of Whitehorse High School scholars and staff!
Administration was notified of a potential threat to the school. Whitehorse High School takes reports seriously and immediately informed the Navajo Nation Police Department. As an extra precaution, we will begin our school day in Secure Mode. We asked for law enforcement presence during bus unloading. Secure Mode means all exterior doors will be locked. Scholars will remain inside for the school day and attend regular classes. We take the responsibility to make sure that school is a safe learning environment seriously. We always encourage scholars and their parents to immediately report any safety concerns to a school administrator or school employee. The safety and well-being of our scholars and staff is our highest priority at all times.
Conditioning today (Oct 25) and all next week (M-Th) from 3:15-6 pm in Cafeteria.
