Just a reminder that tomorrow is the LAST DAY to shop in the WHE Christmas Shop!
Be sure your Wildcat stops by to pick out those special gifts before the shop closes for the season. It’s been a joy watching our students find the perfect surprises for their loved ones!
Thank you for supporting this fun holiday tradition at WHE! 💛🐾💙

📅 Hancock County School District Calendar Vote for 2026–2027
We’re excited to share two calendar options for next school year, and we want to hear from our families, students, and community!
🎬 Watch this quick video to learn more: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G56XbOE0aHo
Both options are nearly identical. The only difference is the October teacher workday:
🍂 Option A – Monday, October 12 (the Monday right after Fall Break)
🎃 Option B – Friday, October 30 (the day before Halloween)
Both calendars keep breaks similar to this year and still allow us to wrap up the school year before the Memorial Day holiday.
🗳️ Please take a moment to cast your vote by December 12:
