WEST WILKES HIGH SCHOOL

Registration Guide for 2025-2026

WILKES COUNTY SCHOOLS | HOME COMMUNITY SCHOOL

Welcome!

The sections included in this guide will give students and parents detailed information about high school graduation requirements, the Career and College Promise (CCP) program that allows students to take college courses tuition-free, and the curriculum course offerings for next year.

We hope that students will carefully review their options and will plan a high school pathway that prepares them to be career and college ready upon graduation.

Questions about the course selection process or the registration guide should be directed to your school counselor or school administration.

Not all courses are offered at all high schools. Please contact your school counselor if you have questions about specific course offerings.
