Important Information


2026-27 Advanced Placement Testing Payment and Registration Information 

Advanced Placement Exam Registration & Payment is a two-step process (Both parts must be completed for each AP exam to be registered, ordered, and paid for). The deadline for registration and payment is November 12th, 2026. Follow the steps below or go to this link for further dates and instructions. 

STEP 1: Students PAY for their AP exam fees via Total Registration. (The College Board does not accept payment when registering for an AP exam, so we have to use a second party to accept and track exam payment.) AP exams are $108.00 per exam. 

STEP 2: Students login or create a College Board account using their NSD email address and enter the “join code” given by their AP teacher to join the class section. 

Please note: By completing Step 2, students are automatically registered for the exam through College Board. If a student does not want to take the exam, they must email Stephanie Hennessy, shennessy@nsd.org, prior to November 12, to cancel. 


Important Deadlines and Information

AP Registration and Payment Deadline: November 12th, 2026 

Late registration fee mandated by College Board: Students may register for an AP exam AFTER November 12th, 2026 and up until March 5, 2027, but will have to pay an additional $42 per exam late order fee.  

Any students who qualify for Free & Reduced Lunch are eligible for a fee waiver and will not have to pay for an AP exam. Contact your counselor with any questions. 

Students do not need to be enrolled in an AP course to take the AP exam. If you want to take an AP exam and are not enrolled in the AP course, you will still need a join code to register and pay for the exam. Please contact Stephanie Hennessy, shennessy@nsd.org, to get a join code issued. 

CONTACT INFORMATION 
Questions? Contact AP Coordinator, Stephanie Hennessy, shennessy@nsd.org, for general questions regarding AP Exam Registration. 

For more information, please visit the WHS AP Website.  


School Photos & ID Cards - Picture Retake/Make-up Day, Thurs, Oct. 15, Both Lunches, Gym/Theater Foyer

All students are required to have their photo taken annually for their WHS ID card. The WHS photo ID card is free of charge. Students must carry photo ID at school and at extra-curricular activities at all times. The photo is also used for the yearbook and all school related purposes. Please make sure your student has their photo taken every year. 

If a student wants a photo retake, or has not had their picture taken this year, this is the last opportunity for them to have a professional photo taken. 

If you would like to order prints or a digital image of the photo taken by the photographer, picture packages may be ordered online at dorianstudio.com and searching for Woodinville High School. 

All photo packages will be mailed home.

Lost ID Cards
If a student loses an ID/ASB card, check at the Main Office as often they are turned in. If the card cannot be found, lost ID/ASB cards can be replaced for $5.00 at the Cashier's Office.

Misprinted ID Cards
If for some reason a student's ID card is missing the Woodinville logo, has a wrong student number, name or wrong image, please stop by the Cashier's Office, as well, for a reprint free of charge.

ASB Membership Validation on ID
If the student id was not validated with ASB or the ASB Membership has been purchased since the photo was taken, please stop by the cashier's office for card validation.


Bus Passes for the 2026-2027 School Year

We are not able to provide bus passes at this time. Load counts on buses can not be assessed until all eligible riders have had the opportunity to ride their bus. Student enrollment has increased which puts school buses at or close to capacity. Therefore, Bus Passes will not be approved for the first month and a half of school until we are able to properly assess available seats.


PSAT & SAT WHS School Day Exam Registration Information

WHS Test Day is October 13th, 2026

Optional Registration for SAT School Day - Go to Total Registration to register for the SAT School Day exam.

NOTE: all Juniors take the PSAT so they do not need to register as we do a bulk registration upload for all juniors. Cost of PSAT is $20.00 and SAT is $65.00. Students are to register for their home school exam dates only (do not register to attend another schools exam date). Registration will close when spaces are filled or September 30th, whichever comes first.

Sophomores

  • IMPORTANT 10th GRADE UPDATE 8/17/2026 -  Due to space availability, sophomores will not be able to register for the School Day PSAT this year. Please visit the College Board website for practice exams and resources. Thank you for your understanding.  Keep an eye out for advertisements by the Junior Class offering PSAT through Huntington Learning Center in January/February. 

Other SAT Exam Opportunities
SAT exams are also administered several times per year at other locations outside of the Northshore School District (usually on a Saturday).  Students will need to establish a College Board account before they can register for these tests.  It is important that the student registers with their own account, not a parent's account.  Creating an account takes about 30 minutes.  This is the same account that you will use if you are registering for an AP test.  As these tests fill up quickly, we recommend that if you want to test at a convenient location that you sign up for the SAT early.  Otherwise, you might end up taking the test at a location further away.

Registration and further information about the SAT can be found on the College Board website or by contacting your student's counselor.

Cars and Parking Lots During Options & Lunch

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.

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.


College & Career Center College Visits

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.

Visit the College Readiness and Resources page to see an updated list of upcoming college visits.

Celebrations


Woodinville Chamber Student of the Month: Drake Spooner!

Congratulations to Senior Drake Spooner who was selected as the Woodinville Chamber Student of the Month! Drake is an inclusive, kind, and respectful leader who truly embodies our One Falcon, One Family culture. We have had the privilege of watching Drake grow from a freshman learning the ropes into a confident student leader who brings people together through academics, athletics, and school spirit.

Drake understands that true school spirit means making sure everyone feels like they belong. He has made it a priority to welcome freshmen and sophomores, intentionally bringing underclassmen into our traditions, activities, and community. Despite balancing a rigorous course load that includes Running Start and AP classes, Drake consistently shows up, encourages his peers, and works to create a more welcoming and inclusive school environment.

What makes Drake special is that he doesn’t simply talk about leadership—he lives it. His energy, genuine care for others, and commitment to bringing people together have made a positive difference across our entire school community. We are incredibly proud to recognize Drake as a Woodinville High School Student of the Month and grateful for the way he strengthens our Falcon Family every day!

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.

The image displays the logo of the Association of Educational Service Districts (AESD) along with the text "Accredited School 2023-2029" against a green background.
