WHS High School Accreditation 2022-23
As shared thoughout the school year, Woodinville High School is participating in the voluntary Washington State Accreditation process. Coming up on Thursday, March 23 the process will culmunate with a site evaluation followed by a presentation at the state level later in the spring.
- This voluntary process takes place every 6 years, along with a 3-year check in, where we demonstrate that here at WHS we provide our students with a high quality and rigorous education.
- Accreditation is an inquiry-based process, tightly aligned to our Strategic Action Plan, and the work we do at WHS.
- Accreditation is not only an internal review of how we are doing in meeting our goals, but also an external review process where we share our work and improvement plan with both a site evaluation review team and a state level review panel.
For further understanding of what the accreditation process entails, please view the WHS Accreditation presentation that outlines the timeline, 6 phases, requirements, and our Strategic Action Plan Goals.
We are excited about the process and showing off what a great school we have!

Reduced or Waived Fees 2022-23
Available by logging into ParentVue and completing the steps in the Student Information Updates module
***Step-by-step instructions on how to submit the consent form in ParentVUE can be found in .pdf HERE. An electronic step-by-step guide is also available on the district website.***
Please note: Part of the process when completing the consent form is families will first verify their information (address, phone, emergency contacts, etc.). The Consent form will appear after the race and preferred language questions. Parents/Guardians need to go through each page and verify information before reaching the consent form. The ParentVUE app on cell phones looks nearly identical to the computer version of ParentVUE for completing the online consent form.
If you qualify for free or reduced price meals, also apply for reduced or waived extra-curricular school fees pursuant to House Bill 1660 (that you may be eligible for) by completing that section of the Student Information Updates in ParentVue* on or after August 15 (see House Bill 1660 details below).
Completing the fee waiver form in ParentVUE* will allow your student's free and reduced status to be shared with those administering extra-curricular activities at our school or within the district, thus being able to waive or reduce certain fees.
Consent must be given each school year and does not carry forward from last school year. Instructions on how to submit the consent form in ParentVUE can be found on the district website.
Once the Consent is submitted through the Student Information Updates portal in ParentVUE, it takes a minimum of 24 hours for the waived fees to show up in TouchBase.
Visit the District website to learn how to apply for free or reduced price meals.

Four Journalism Club students--Keanu Thakaloth, Jillian Baer, Ava Wahl and Avery Cherry--attended the Washington Journalism Education Association Spring Conference (J Days!) on Saturday, March 4 at Montlake Terrace High School.
In addition to attending some awesome sessions on Journalism topics, all four competed in writing and web design competitions. The competition was stiff, with Journalism Classes from across the state competing.
The following two received awards:
Jill Baer, 9th Grade, Honorable Mention in Editorial Writing
Ava Wahl, 10th Grade, Excellence in News Writing
Jill saved the day when a link to submit the competition pieces was not working -- she figured out a work around and guided all the competitors to do the same. For her quick problem-solving skills and willingness to help everyone, she was called up to stage and awarded an AP Style Book by the OG in WA State Journalism, Vince DeMiero. For Journalism geeks, this is super cool : )
Please congratulate these students when you see them! And check out their News Source, Woodinville Now at https://www.woodinvillenow.org/

IMPORTANT: WHS Reminder Regarding AP Exam Registration - March 15 Deadline
This is an important notice regarding AP exam registration.
When students created a MyAP account in the College Board portal to gain course access and register for an exam(s), an AP exam was officially ordered for your student. Please be sure to make payment for all exams your student has registered for on their MyAP account in Total Registration to complete the exam enrollment. (www.TotalRegistration.net/AP/481598)
If your student does NOT wish to take an exam, parents/guardians please notify Paul Cho (pcho@nsd.org) as soon as possible so the exam ordered can be canceled, as there will be a $40 fee assessed to your student’s account for each unused exam.
Again, please email Mr. Cho if you want to cancel an exam. Mr. Cho will help with the exam cancellations, as College Board accounts do not allow students (or teachers) to cancel the exams themselves in MyAP.
The final deadline for all registration transactions must be made by Wednesday, March 15, 2023.
Thank you for taking care of this right away.

From the WHS Health Room
COVID Updates:
The Washington State Department of Health has provided new guidance for schools this fall. Please review the Symptom and Exposure Flowchart for Schools and learn about the Northshore School District's COVID information on our Health Room website so you are prepared for the school year. You'll find details about what to do if your child has:
- Symptoms,
- If your child is exposed to COVID,
- What kind of test your child should have,
- What to do if your child tests positive, and
- How you will be notified of COVID cases at school.
Other Illnesses:
To avoid the spread of illness other than COVID, follow these guidelines when deciding whether your child is healthy enough for school. In addition to the COVID guidelines, if your child has any of the symptoms below, please keep him/her at home until the symptoms subside:
- APPEARANCE/BEHAVIOR: unusually tired, difficult to wake, pale, skin rash, lack of appetite; these are often signs of underlying illness.
- FEVER: temperature of 100 degrees or higher in the past 24 hours
- VOMITING/DIARRHEA: within the past 24 hours.
- RASH: Any rash of unknown cause should be considered contagious. Please have your child examined by a health care provider to determine the cause and communicability of the rash before sending him/her to school. The school may require a note from the health care provider stating that the rash is not contagious.
- Other: For other specific diseases or health difficulties it is always a good idea to contact the school nurse. We are happy to share information and resources anytime!
Students must be fever-free without fever reducing medication and other symptoms improving before returning to school.
Medications at School:
If your student will be taking any medication at school, please contact the school nurse. The Northshore School District recommends that medication be taken at home whenever possible. We recognize, however, that in some cases it is essential that medication be administered during the school day. Learn about the procedures for the handling of ALL medications in the schools, as well as find the authorization form, on our Health Room website.
Please do not put any kind of medicine, including Tylenol, vitamins, and cough drops in your child's lunch box, backpack or pockets. Unidentified medicine can never be given at school.
Please feel free to contact us at any time to discuss health concerns about your student.
