The CHAT Hour:
WHS PTO hosts The Completely Helpful All the Time Hour (“The CHAT Hour”) approximately every six weeks. Let’s be honest – we recognize that parenting during these high school years is tough and brings different challenges (and opportunities!). The Chat Hour will bring together our WHS parent and staff communities and draw upon outside expertise to engage in impactful conversations. Dates and topics can be found on The CHAT Hour tab and also will be included in the weekly WHS e-news and on the WHS PTO Facebook page.
Payment Request Form
PTO Volunteers and WHS Staff may use the PTO Reimbursement Form to submit for reimbursement from the PTO Treasurer for money spent on a PTO supported project or grant.
Submit this completed form along with scanned image(s) of your receipts to the WHS PTO Treasurer via email: treasurerwhspto@gmail.com.
