Dear Raider Parents
Welcome to a new, challenging, and exciting year at W.J. Keenan High School. We are an educational institution of exemplary standards, strong tradition, and diverse opportunities. Even in extreme uncertainty, it is our responsibility to ensure student's benefit from a wealth of resources and grow into productive citizens who can compete in a global society.
Our vision is to create a nationally known high school that is highly regarded for its academic excellence, leadership in cutting edge technology, science, environmental, and career-based programs. We will continue to develop a high school that builds strong relationships with all stakeholders and foster a culture where the expectation is to lead, set the example, and raise standards for all to follow.
We have amazing teachers and an awesome staff, who are dedicated to doing what is required to transform W.J. Keenan High School into a school of excellence. As a team, we will continue to focus on building strong relationships, educational opportunities, and high expectations for all.
Sincerely
Vondre T. Whaley, Principal
