Honours Celebration:

On Thursday November 8th, Western celebrated the outstanding academic achievement of our students. Thirty-eight students received several awards some of which included money. We also celebrated all the students in grades 9-12 who were on the honour roll meaning they received an overall average of 75% or greater in the 2011-2012 school year. Staff, students and parents enjoyed participating in the ceremony as over 200 students received these certificates honouring their achievements. And the cakes were delicious!
