White River High School WRHS is located on an 84-acre site just outside of Buckley, WA. In 1953 the City of Enumclaw voted to form their own district. Please be respectful.

Before 1949 it was known as "Buckley HS" but when it merged with "Enumclaw HS" the school became known as White River. Our page is set up so that anyone can add comments.

Parents & Graduates of the Class of 2027,

It has all led up to this--from the first day of kindergarten to the first day of their senior year. One of the activities we take care of early in the school year is ordering your graduate's graduation cap and gown and announcements. Jostens-our company provider, will have an informational Meeting for the Seniors on Wed. Oct. 21st, exact time TBD (roughly 9am). Note, this meeting will be for the students only. We will also take the senior class picture this morning. More info to come soon!

Ordering can be done online at www.jostens.com.

A huge thank you to our Advisory Board, the companies who showed up with welding rigs, and everyone who donated excavator buckets! Our SkillsUSA members stayed after school on Friday and spent two incredible hours getting real, hands-on welding experience. This is exactly the kind of industry connection that makes a difference!

Important update regarding this week’s Homecoming schedule.

We were notified this morning that Todd Beamer High School has canceled the remainder of its varsity football season. As a result, our Homecoming football game scheduled for Thursday, October 1, 2026, has been canceled. Unfortunately, due to the short notice, we are unable to secure another opponent for tomorrow evening.

While we are disappointed that the football game will not take place, many of our Homecoming traditions will continue as planned, with a few adjustments:

• Homecoming Parade – Thursday, October 1: The parade will continue as scheduled, beginning at 5:00 p.m. on Main Street in downtown Buckley. All groups and participants scheduled for the parade will still take part. We encourage our community to come out, line Main Street, and celebrate our students and schools!

• WRHS Homecoming Dance – Saturday, October 3: The Homecoming Dance will continue as scheduled.

• WRHS Band & Homecoming Royalty: The WRHS Band halftime performance and recognition of our WRHS Homecoming Royalty will be moved to our only remaining home game this season, Thursday, October 15, during halftime of our Senior Night football game against Kent Meridian High School. Our senior football players and cheerleaders will also be recognized that evening as originally planned for Senior Night. Homecoming class floats will not be part of the October 15 halftime activities but will be in the parade tomorrow.

Homecoming Week is always a special time in the White River School District and we recognize that the cancellation of tomorrow night’s Homecoming football game is disappointing, but we appreciate everyone’s flexibility and understanding as we make the best of an unexpected situation.

Most importantly, Homecoming Week continues! We look forward to seeing our community come together for the parade and continuing an incredible week filled with school spirit, tradition, and White River pride.
