This afternoon, we will be conducting school safety and security training scenarios with our faculty and staff. If you are passing by the school district along Hargus Creek Road, there may be temporary stops by emergency management personnel, including Rogersville FD, Greene Co. Emergency Management, Greene Co. Sheriff's Office, and PA State Police. We will be covering multiple types of school safety scenarios as a part of our mandated Act 55 training.
We appreciate your patience and understanding, as well as the support from our local law enforcement and first responder agencies.
WVU has a few remaining spots available in the fall 2023 semester for both ECON 201 (Principles of Microeconomics) and FIS 201 (Intro-Forensic Identification). These are dual enrollment courses open to high school students in which all tuition fees will be covered by the Clark Opportunity Foundation. If you are interested, please contact Mr. Gaydos (gaydose@wgsd.org) ASAP!
Students and Parents that wish to get a copy of their schedule can pick them up in the Main Office. Due to construction on the Main Stairs, all visitors are asked to use the Rear Auditorium Entrance (Door 23). Please ring the buzzer to be let in. Thank you.
Dear Students and Parents,
The student schedules have been completed and will be made available through the Focus Parent/Student Portal.

The process of scheduling should be taken very seriously by both students and parents/guardians. School counselors are always available and should be consulted regarding all scheduling issues. Scheduling begins in the spring for the upcoming school year. Students must schedule for the entire school year. Students are permitted to attend only those classes for which they are scheduled. Students will be given a scheduling form and a Course Selection Handbook to review with their parents/guardians.
It is highly recommended that parents/guardians and students work together in building a schedule. The scheduling form must be signed by the parent/guardian and returned to the Main Office. If no form is returned, the student will be scheduled last into whatever courses are still available. Schedule changes are highly discouraged, and will only be approved in extreme cases. All scheduling changes must be approved by the principal. Students will not be permitted to enter a new class without proof that the schedule change has been approved by the Office of Student Services and Administration.
Students will also have the schedules available in the High School Office beginning Monday, August 14, 2023.
Sincerely,
Mr. Sakai
Junior-Senior High School Principal

Day 2 of CampIWannaLearn is making us want to go camping "forest" of our lives...and there "s'more!"
Today campers explored outside and found objects that could then be used to learn about measurements and weights in the classroom.
Campers have also been learning about money and budgeting by paying for their own lunches with "fake funds." It was one of their favorite parts of the day!
Attention HS Athletes: If you haven't received your sports physical, you can do so today between 9 AM - 2 PM. Physical packets are available in the high school office and the actual physical will be conducted in the HS Nurse's Office.

We want to thank the kindergarten classes for letting us celebrate their “25 Days to Graduation”.

Over the past few years, West Greene Aquaponics students take care of Trout from January till May. During this time, our students are responsible for creating a habitat for the trout to grow in. After all the hard work these same students release the trout in Ohiopyle State Park, where these fish will continue to grow and contribute to the local ecosystem. Lastly, our students got to explore Ohiopyle State Park looking wildlife interactions and watershed interactions. This is all made possible by West Greene’s participation in the Trout in the Classroom program was made possible through a partnership between the Pennsylvania Fish and Boat Commission (PFBC) and the Pennsylvania Council of Trout Unlimited (PATU).
