Will Rogers Junior High

What do we do during the summer months with no students? We make WRJH look its best, thanks to our maintenance crew! They are removing the old desks in the science labs and putting in new tables! They are also fixing all the breaks/holes/tears in the building. We are so grateful they are getting the building ready for another school year! #CPSZEBRAPRIDE

Our next Motivational Monday highlights Mr. Worthington. Mr. Worthington is our assistant principal. What motivates him to be the best principal he can be is that he finds motivation in making a meaningful difference in the lives of the students and community they serve. Every part of a principal revolves not only around the students, but the staff, the parents and the community. Well said, Mr. Worthington. We are so happy you are here! #CPSZEBRAPRIDE

During this school break, our administrators were asked what motivates them every day as a school principal. Today, Mrs. Luginbill, our assistant principal, tells us what motivates her to do the job. "Our students motivate me each day. They exemplify strength and perseverance. They give their best every day, and they deserve MY best in return. This motivates me to be the best that I can be. " Thanks for always being there for our students, Mrs. Luginbill. We appreciate it. #CPSZEBRAPRIDE
