"I wish somebody would have told me babe
Some day, these will be the good old days
All the love you won't forget
And all these reckless nights you won't regret
Someday soon, your whole life's gonna change
You'll miss the magic of these good old days"

🐾 Student Leadership in Action at Watervliet High School! 🐾
One of the most unique leadership opportunities at WHS takes place through our Student Advisory Council. During interviews for positions at the high school, students take an active role in the process by introducing themselves, asking interview questions, discussing candidate qualifications, and collaborating as a team to help provide feedback on each candidate.
Through this experience, students develop valuable communication and interviewing skills, learn how professional hiring processes work, and interact with a wide variety of people and personalities. Just as importantly, they step into true leadership roles within our building and represent our school with professionalism and pride.
This picture was taken during interviews for our Choir/Theatre position. We are incredibly proud of how well our students represented WHS!

We are excited to announce next year’s Student Advisory Council members! 🐾
This group will meet with the principal 2–3 times each month to provide feedback, discuss school policies, share ideas, and help make WHS even better. Students also gain a behind-the-scenes look at how schools operate and how decisions are made.
A huge thank you to this year’s SAC members for their leadership, honesty, and commitment to improving our school. I am looking forward to another great year working alongside these student leaders! 🎓🐾

Early this school year, Watervliet High School held a student design competition to create artwork for one of the large wall murals located just inside the building. Students were invited to submit original design proposals, and after all entries were reviewed, the student body voted to select the winning design.
We are excited to share that senior Jaylee Havenaar was selected as the winner of the competition!
Throughout the school year, our art classes worked hard to bring Jaylee’s vision to life, carefully creating the mural that will soon become a permanent part of WHS. The final step remaining is the addition of a wooden frame, which is currently being completed by the woodworking class.
Congratulations to Jaylee on leaving behind a lasting reminder of her time at Watervliet High School! We would also like to thank all of the students who submitted designs and contributed to the project, along with Mrs. Hunt for her leadership and dedication in helping bring this mural to life. It has been a wonderful example of Panther creativity, collaboration, and pride! 🐾

Our senior pranksters were at it again today! 🎓🐾
The Class of 2026 brought plenty of laughs, creativity, and school spirit to the building as they pulled off some fun and lighthearted pranks during their final week as Panthers. From decorating classrooms to surprising a few favorite staff members, our seniors made memories they will never forget.
Thank you to our students for keeping the fun positive, respectful, and full of Panther Pride! These moments are part of what makes senior year so special.

🎓🐾 WHS PANTHERS attended the ALSAME Youth Conference at Western Michigan University Friday! 🐾🎓
Our students spent the day engaging in college readiness workshops, career exploration sessions, student and professional panels, financial aid presentations, and a large college fair featuring universities and organizations from across Michigan.
Students also had the opportunity to network with Latino professionals and college students while experiencing campus life at WMU. The conference focused on leadership, cultural identity, and helping students feel confident and prepared for their futures after high school.
We are proud of our Panthers for taking advantage of opportunities that help them explore their goals, expand their horizons, and prepare for success beyond WHS!

As the sunshine rolls in, WHS is heating up with celebrations, accomplishments, and exciting end-of-year events! ☀️🐾

CONGRATULATIONS TO YOUR FRESHMAN APRIL 2026 STUDENT OF THE MONTH --FROYLAN FLORES!
My favorite teacher is Mr. Adongo because he makes learning enjoyable and always takes the time to help students. His patience, kindness, and sense of humor make his classroom a positive place to be.
My favorite class is Social Studies because I enjoy learning about history, cultures, and how the world works today.
I am involved in Track and Field, which helps me stay active, build confidence, and push myself to improve every day.
In my free time, I enjoy playing video games and helping my dad with landscaping work during the summer. Landscaping has taught me responsibility and hard work.
After high school, I plan to either pursue a career in business or become a mechanic because I enjoy hands-on work and learning valuable skills for the future.
I am proud to be a Watervliet High School Panther because of the teamwork, support, and opportunities our school provides.
