The thought of any gas leak poses a danger to everyone, and the WLVS District takes any potential danger very seriously. However, the last three incidents at WLVHS were NOT gas leaks. These incidents resulted in the need to make emergency calls, creating a false alarm, violating security procedures, carrying out a planned attack, including causing harm to others. All of which are potentially a form of school terrorism. Should any student have an item that emits a substance that affects the health and safety of students and staff, they will be held to the highest degree of discipline, and charges will be filed with authorities. We appreciate your cooperation in maintaining a safe and healthy educational environment.

Good Afternoon Dons Families:
This notice serves to remind you that we can only have a licensed driver parking on campus. We have many Freshman with no license or students with a permit. Keep in mind that according to the NM Motor Vehicle Division, a student with a permit must have a licensed adult in the vehicle with them. Students with a provisional license or a regular driver's license are allowed and should have secured a parking permit. Students were informed they will not be allowed to drive and park unless they have the proper licensure. Bus transportation is available to students.

Dear Families:
We are committed to ensuring the safety and security of all our staff and students on campus. Our school district has purchased a metal detector. We will be conducting a test at West Las Vegas High School tomorrow. All students will walk through the detector as they enter campus. This is simply a test to familiarize ourselves with the equipment and determine precisely how each detection level works. Please don't worry- we will ensure this process runs smoothly so students can get to class without disruption. We appreciate your support and understanding as we take these critical steps to maintain a safe learning environment. Thank you for your continued support and cooperation. It's Always A Great Day To Be A Don!
Parents at Luis E. Armijo Elementary please stay behind the lines for parent pick up. Please stay towards the fence. This is to keep all kids safe and counted for by their teacher. Please give teachers time to release your child to you. Thank you for your understanding and cooperation.
Tony Serna Jr. Elementary- Shelter in Place has been lifted. All kids are safe. Thank you for your cooperation.
Tony Serna Jr. Elementary is currently on a Shelter-in-Place protocol due to police activity. ALL KIDS ARE SAFE! We will inform you when the Shelter-in-Place has been lifted. Again, all kids are safe.
We look forward to seeing all your beautiful faces on campus tomorrow. A couple of things to remember is to follow parking and drop-off protocols. Remember that student drop-off is alongside the gymnasium and not in front of the school. Signage will be available to navigate you. At the end of the day, we ask that if you pick up a student, you avoid parking between the high school and the old middle school gym. Parking there creates a hazard for our buses. Students who have not purchased a parking pass will have this week to purchase one. Students without a pass will be asked to park in an un-numbered spot for now. Students who purchased a pass will need to show the pass on their windshield. Students who purchased a pass may come into the office to swap out their temporary pass and secure their official parking badge. Thank you all so much. It's always a great day to be a Don. This year is going to be amazing.
