WGHS Beautification

A special thanks to Sharon May and Cheri Albright for all the time coordinating, planning, and selecting planters and fillers for placement around the school.

Thanks also goes to Tina O”Brien and Lynn Stowe and Cheri Albright for helping with the work day.
Coach Causey and the football team were also really helpful because they spread all of the bales of pinestraw in the courtyard and cafeteria areas.
Gin Reid Hall delivered a thank you note and “special treat” for the players in acknowledgement of their service to the school.  Word has it they have been doing other things to “spruce up the campus this summer”.
Another volunteer named Heidi Pegram (who has a freshman this year and is a curriculum facilitator at Peeler) has come by on several occasions to dust the trophy cases.  Her hard work is evident and the cases she has worked on are much improved in appearance.

WGHS has a leadership team (WGLT) composed of administration, teachers, staff and parents.

The purpose of WGLT is to make decisions related to school finances (budget) and curriculum at Western Guilford. WGLT will deal with issues directly and indirectly related to instruction, student performance, school climate and improvement.

There are four parent representatives that serve on the WGLT during the school year.

Parent representatives shall be elected by the parents and guardians of children currently enrolled at Western Guilford in an election conducted by the PTSO. Parent representatives shall reflect the racial and socioeconomic composition of Western Guilford (if such parents agree to serve) and shall not be members of the building level staff.

WGHS PTSO Leadership Team

We are seeking interest from any parent willing to serve.

Please complete the information in the attachment below and send it to the front office at Western Guilford or e-mail it to Maureen Demarest Murray at maureen.murray@smithmoorelaw.com.  Contact Maureen at 378-5258 during the day with any questions.

Please try to spread the word to seniors that you know.

The PTSO and Western Guilford are trying to collect after graduation caps and gowns from anyone willing to donate theirs to be used next year by students needing financial assistance.  Don’t shove that cap and gown into a drawer or the attic.  Put it to good use.  As many of you know, there can be a good bit of expense associated with graduation and senior year.  Please help all our students participate in graduation.

There will be a box near by where diplomas will be handed to graduating students after the ceremony on Sunday at the Special Events Center.  There will also be a box in the Counseling Office at Western Guilford.  Ms. Trevino, Dean of Students, is also willing to collect the caps and gowns.

We appreciate your help!  Maureen

In order for the PTSO to continue functioning and carrying out its mission to “support the education of WGHS students and to involve parents, guardians, caregivers, teachers and staff collaboratively in enhancing the educational experience of students and teachers at WGHS”, we need YOU to step up and help by filling one of these roles if at all possible.  This is your chance to make a difference!

Please see the attached Nomination Form and seriously consider an Executive or Committee Chair role for next year.
