Meet the Administrators

Welcome to the 2026–2027 School Year at Western High School!

On behalf of our entire Western High School family, it is my pleasure to welcome our students, families, staff, and community members to the 2026–2027 school year!

As we begin another exciting year, we are proud to continue our tradition of excellence, innovation, and Wildcat Pride. At Western High School, our commitment remains steadfast: to provide every student with opportunities to learn, grow, lead, and succeed in a supportive and engaging environment.

We are especially proud of the accomplishments of our students and staff, whose dedication and hard work have once again earned Western High School an “A” school grade. This achievement reflects the collective efforts of our entire school community and serves as a foundation for even greater success in the year ahead.

This year, we invite all students to embrace new opportunities, challenge themselves academically, get involved in campus life, and build meaningful connections. Whether you are joining us for the first time or returning for another year, you are an important part of what makes Western such a special place.

Families, thank you for your continued partnership and support. Together, we will ensure that every student is empowered to reach their full potential and make the most of their high school experience.

As we move forward under our shared commitment of One Mission. One Pride. One Western, we look forward to a year filled with achievement, growth, and unforgettable memories.

Welcome back, Wildcats! Let's make the 2026–2027 school year our best one yet.

Michelle G. Padura
Principal, Western High School
