The WJHS learning center officially opened in December of 2008. We also opened the second part of the learning center, our ELL classroom at the same time. Students who are struggling in school or behind in the academics can attend or be referred to our learning center to work on projects or receive 1-1 assistance. We have over 300 referrals each month and our kids benefit greatly from the technology, full computer lab, and resources that are available. These new classrooms and resources were provided by a $50,000 grant from the Washington County Riverboat Foundation.
