Today, March 4, Western High School initiated a lockdown at 1:15 p.m. due to altercations during Lunch C. Once hallways were cleared, students returned to class, and normal operations resumed. I appreciate your cooperation. Please don't hesitate to contact the administration team with any questions.
All City Schools schools will be closed on Wednesday, February 12, 2025, due to forecasted inclement weather. Have a safe snow day, Western Family!

Hi Class of 2028 Parents, just a helpful reminder for your child to sign up for their Double Good Fundraiser store! Our goal as a grade level is to raise $10,000! That means we need to sell $20,000 worth of popcorn! It just takes all 300 of us to sell $67 worth of popcorn! We can do it! -Wright Gayle
Good Afternoon Western Families,
The Class of 2028 welcomes all of you to join us for the "Sharing The Light" Freshman Induction Ceremony on Tuesday, October 15th at 7pm at the Lumsden-Scott Stadium. We would love to see your face in the place! -AP Wright Gayle
Dear Parents and Guardians,
We have evacuated the building due to a gas smell. BGE, the Fire Department, and district leadership have been contacted, and all students and staff are safe. We will update you with next steps shortly. Thank you for your understanding.
Sincerely, Western High School Administration
