Seal of Bi-Literacy - On Wednesday, May 19th, West High School recognized and honored an elite group of 16 students who earned the Seal of Biliteracy. This prestigious award was earned by students who have proven to be proficient in more than one language. These students demonstrated their proficiency in the 4 areas of language- reading, writing, speaking, and listening, and expressed their ideas about bilingualism through essays in both English and their language of study. Finally, they created and implemented a service project which focused on language or global citizenship. They were awarded a certificate from the Department of Public Instruction, a Seal of Biliteracy medal, a yard sign, as well as a cord to wear at graduation. Congratulations!

West Band Concert - On Sunday, May 23rd, 2021, the Waukesha West Bands held their end-of-year concert. Though the event had to be moved indoors due to weather, the trade-off was undoubtedly a better experience for those in attendance as being inside enhanced the robustness of the talented sound our bands produced. Enjoy some pictures of the concert below and you can access the performances on YouTube through this link!
West Choirs - On Saturday, May 22nd, 2021 the West Choirs performed their end-of-year concert in the West Fieldhouse. Please enjoy a picture and short video clip of the performance:
