WHS rests in the middle of Auburn, Michigan and is the home to approximately 1200 students. Approx 70% of the senior class completes the FAFSA in preparation to further their education at the college level, WHS students are well-prepared for the next chapter of their lives.

Today, Western High School remains the home of the Warriors. WHS staff teach students more than academics. We teach them to Be A Warrior! Being a warrior is embracing the idea of doing the difficult things that need to be done to make oneself, one's team, one's school, one's family, one's community better. Warriors have always been needed in every culture/society throughout time, the same is true now. Warriors make a difference!
