Welcome to White River Valley Middle School. I have been a part of this school district for the last 24 years, and I am ready for the new challenges ahead as we welcome the White River Valley Middle School students and staff members back into the Wolverine family.
We will continue to strive to meet the goals in our mission of increasing rigor and relevance across the curriculum in all that we do. The master schedule includes the core classes and allows for many choices along the way. I am excited to offer the 8th grade students opportunities for high school classes during the first 2 periods of the day with choices for high school credit. In grades 5 through 7, I am anxiously awaiting opportunities to see kids in the maker space extending to the hallway engaged in STEAM activities that will continue to help students thrive and make choices that will lead to a pathway in their futures. We are also striving to engage students in drama club, sports, and musical opportunities throughout the school year. All of the work and thought that has gone into the curriculum would not be complete without a positive attitude and the ability of the students to develop positive relationships with the staff and other students around them. At WRV, everyone counts and everyone matters. Every student brings a uniqueness that we want to cultivate and understand as we all work and grow together.
I am excited to start another school year as we welcome students back. Please feel free to communicate with me anytime you have an issue or a question.
Sincerely,
Jason Walton
