Whitehall MS/HS Principal Check-in

April is a busy month with added layers of standardized testing. We recently finished the ACTs with the Juniors and have the Pre-ACTs for Sophomores planned for April 27th. Mr. Norbeck, the school counselor, is the lead on these exams. Please contact him with questions at cnorbeck@whitehallmt.org or 287-3862 ext 2122.

The testing window for the 6-8 grade state assessments to include English, Math and Science (8th grade only) are scheduled for April 19th – 30th. Teachers will be communicating home the week of these exams, so parents know the exact day of testing. Students benefit from a good night’s sleep and a healthy breakfast on the day of testing.

Our drama team will perform “The Importance of Being Earnest” Thursday the 8th and Friday the 9th of April at 7 pm in the MPR room. Additional information will be posted regarding how to watch this televised event on our Facebook page. A special thank you to Marci Whitehurst, the drama coach!
