IMPORTANT INFORMATION

Daily Schedule

Students, this is a reminder that you are not to be hanging out in cars or in the parking lots during options or lunch. As we reminded you during Falcon Days, this is not a new policy but one that we are returning to reinforcing this year for safety and supervision reasons both for you individually and for all WHS students. We will continue to remind you of this the first two days of school, but expect all students are aware of and following this policy after that.

Passes Required for Elevator Use

As we start the 2024-2025 school year please note that in order to use the elevator, students are required to check out an elevator pass in the Main Office with Mrs. Benedict.

The ONLY students who should be using the elevator are students with medical conditions. If a student is seen using the elevator without a pass that has been checked out, they will receive progressive discipline.

ATTEND A COLLEGE VISIT at WHS!

One of the more important opportunities available this fall is the college admissions representative visits. College admissions reps from campuses across the state and country are scheduled to visit Woodinville HS to meet with interested students. We have a huge list of colleges already on the schedule and they are very excited to meet you.

This is one of the few opportunities available to meet the person who may be reading your college application, ask questions about the particular campus, and gather helpful information to use during your college research and the admission/application process.

To see an updated list of upcoming college visits, please look at the right hand side of this webpage or go into Naviance under Colleges, College Visits!

Celebrations

Celebrating WHS Robotics 

Team 9450 won the IMPACT Award! This recognition is an extraordinary achievement, especially for a second-year team. Historically, this award is won by teams with years of outreach, but we made history by achieving both an undefeated season and an IMPACT Award win in just our second year — a feat never accomplished before in the 25-year history of FIRST Robotics.

The FIRST IMPACT Award is the most prestigious award in FIRST Robotics Competition (FRC). It recognizes a team that has made a significant and measurable impact on their community through outreach, advocacy, and STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math) initiatives.

Winning this award is not just about building a successful robot; it celebrates a team's commitment to inspiring others and spreading the values of FIRST. Teams that receive the IMPACT Award demonstrate exceptional efforts in encouraging young people to engage in STEM, mentoring other teams, creating sustainable programs, and making a lasting difference in their communities.

Next up, Robotics heads to Cheney, Washington, to compete at Eastern Washington University. With a spot at the World Championships on the line, and currently tied for first. Congratulations Robotics!

2025 WSGBCA Senior All State Game!

Junior Cooper Brix Selected for Young People’s Continental Congress

This July, WHS junior Cooper Brix will travel to Philadelphia, along with LMS teacher Kathleen Hartman, as the only delegation from Washington selected to participate in the second annual Young People’s Continental Congress. In addition to completing online learning modules throughout spring 2025 about subjects such as the Continental Congress, the Boston Massacre, and economic liberty in Colonial America, Cooper's delegation will join 26 other teacher-student teams in Philadelphia for a week of special programming and field learning opportunities at sites such as Carpenters’ Hall, Independence National Historical Park, the National Constitution Center, the Museum of the American Revolution, and the Historical Society of Pennsylvania. Delegates will also co-create and sign a joint declaration of their aspirations for American democracy, just as their historical counterparts issued the Declaration of Colonial Rights and the Declaration of Independence. Delegations were selected for this opportunity by National History Day and Carpenters’ Hall, the home of the nation’s First Continental Congress in 1774. Congratulations to Cooper for earning this exciting opportunity!

ASL Night Out

​In late February, more than 100 ASL students from around the district gathered for their third "ASL Night Out" of the year at Inglemoor High School. Students came together to spend two hours in an immersive environment, using ASL to navigate real-life interactions, including introductions, games, and challenges. This event was revived after COVID and rotates around the District so all high schools can take turns hosting. Students invite friends and alumni to join the events, reconnect with friends, and build community at other schools.

Thank you to the ASL team for your collaboration and care for your students: Richard "RJ" Jacobs, Dr. Stacey Hutchison, Andy Gault, Jessica Cooper, RJ Harris, Sarah Campbell, and Nicole Skorupa.

WHS Accreditation

Woodinville High School participated in the Washington State Accreditation process in the 2022-23 school year. 

• This is a voluntary process that takes place every 6 years, where we demonstrate that here at WHS we provide our students with a high quality and rigorous education.
• Accreditation is an inquiry-based process, tightly aligned to our Strategic Action Plan, and the work we do at WHS. 
• Accreditation is not only an internal review of how we are doing in meeting our goals, but also an external review process where we share our work and improvement plan with both a site evaluation review team and a state level review panel.

We are pleased to announce WHS was accredited for another 6 years, with our school noted as exceptional.
