2023 WMHS Prom Information: April 29 @ "The Vault" in Marietta
Parking Info:
With the location of our venue for the prom we will not be able to valet park student cars this year. We hope to bring this back in the future. Student will utilize the parking lot across the street from Tampico's and the Pizza Place on 2nd Street in Marietta or the Parking lot behind the People's Bank Parking lot on 2nd Street directly behind the Court House. There is also street parking available. A key check-in will be available if students need someplace to hold the keys so they will not be lost.
Walk-in Info:
We will have Putnam Street blocked off except for a fire lane. We will set up a great Red-Carpet experience for friends and family to take pictures of students entering the prom. This will start around 7:15PM. If there is rain, drizzle or any yucky weather, unfortunately, we will not be able to do our typical walk-in.
Prom starts at 8:00PM with the crowning of the King and Queen at 10:00PM. Last Dance will be at 10:30PM. There will be light hors d'oeuvres and refreshments.
Dear families,
Your student is invited to join me for a once-in-a-lifetime travel experience to France, Germany and the Alps in Summer 2025!

I know we have several students interested in taking high school courses this summer. This program will run through PHS. They informed me today they would have forms to fill out next week if interested, and we will get those out and let everyone know when we have them in hand. Just wanted to keep everyone updated!

We have a fan bus for the game Friday! Of course we have to act fast. If your child would like to ride the bus, they need to bring $15 tomorrow and give to Mrs. Chaddock in the athletic office. That will cover the ticket and transportation. The bus will leave at 9:30 Friday morning, and return around 2:00 in the afternoon. Please have them bring extra money if they want to eat in the arena, as we will not have time to stop anywhere. Any student that has a ticket, can turn it in to be excused as an educational experience.
Go Jackets!!!
Tomorrow, Thursday March 16, is PJ Day at WMHS. Please consider bringing a $1.00 donation to wear your pj's to support the work that Wood County Society does in our area for individuals with disabilities and their families.
