Student Spotlight: As a sophomore at Williams High School, Hillary Mendoza-Ramirez has already made a remarkable impact. A former student of Southern Alamance Middle School, she has shown exceptional drive and determination throughout her academic journey. Despite facing personal and academic obstacles, she persevered and left SAMS as an International Baccalaureate student at Williams High School.
Now a sophomore at Williams High School, Hillary's passion for empowering others has led her to establish the Women's STEM Club. Recognizing the importance of End-of-Grade (E.O.G.) scores and their impact on the transition to high school, Hillary has taken it upon herself to organize tutoring sessions for SAMS' eighth-grade students.
Through the Women's STEM Club, Hillary has assembled a team of dedicated Williams High School students to provide tutoring in Math and Science subjects. Her initiative aims to equip SAMS students with the necessary skills and confidence to excel in their E.O.G. assessments, ultimately setting them up for a successful freshman year.
Hillary's commitment to giving back to her community and supporting the next generation of learners is truly commendable. Her efforts not only foster academic growth but also inspire others to embrace a spirit of mentorship and service!

What a spectacular evening at the Williams High School Art Show last night! 🎨✨ The school gym was transformed into a breathtaking gallery, showcasing the immense talent and creativity of our student artists.
From striking visual art pieces and intricate pottery to captivating photographs and thought-provoking videography, the exhibition was a true feast for the senses. Adding to the experience, a few student artists were creating masterpieces live before our very eyes! 🖼️
A huge shout-out to the Williams art teachers, Elizabeth Wooten and Emily Brinskelle, photographer teacher John Upchurch, and videography teacher Julie Moore, whose guidance and inspiration have nurtured such remarkable artistic abilities in our students. The talent on display was simply staggering!
Awards day is May 23, 2024. Parents, please arrive prior to 9:00 AM.
Current 11th and 12th grade students who have registered for a summer Alamance Community College Course, those ACC courses start Monday, May 20th. If there is a scheduling conflict with your new ACC course and your current Williams courses, please communicate with your teachers to develop a plan to complete course work for Williams and ACC. Also please check your ACC email for final instructions.
CAS (Creativity, Activity, Service) is a core component of the IB Diploma Program. In addition to seeking experiences in these areas and reflecting on them, all IB seniors complete a CAS project. One such senior, Alana Moon, combined the strands of Creativity and Service to create a beautiful and motivational mural wall on the third floor hallway. As you can see the process was not without its hiccups, but with each obstacle came an opportunity to adapt and grow!
May 23 is the senior awards ceremony. All seniors should attend & need to wear full graduation attire. (You should wear your cap, gown, stole, and tassel. You should wear either a dress that is no longer than the gown, or dress pants and a dress shirt. Dress shoes are preferred.)
Our students have amazing work and would love for you to see it!
Come out and Celebrate!
