My teacher would disagree.
It's perfectly possible for sopranos to enunciate clearly on high notes, and composers do give us words on high Bs and Cs, etc. eg Mimi's high C on "amor" at the end of Act 1 Boheme. Carlisle Floyd gives Susannah lots of words on high bflat. I'm sure that there are plenty of other examples.
Everything does not have to become a vocalise above the staff!
