Dear Students, Parents, and Guardians,
I am thrilled to welcome you back to another exciting school year in the White River School District! I hope everyone enjoyed a restful and rejuvenating summer break.
As we embark on this new academic year, I want to express our unwavering commitment to providing a challenging, supportive, safe, and inspiring environment for all students. Whether you're a wide-eyed kindergartener or a seasoned senior, we are dedicated to fostering a love of learning and equipping you with the skills to succeed in the ever-changing world.
This year, we are particularly excited about having the opportunity to challenge students with a new English/Reading curriculum in the elementary, middle, and high schools. This initiative is designed to enhance the vertical alignment within our district and has been a goal for many years now. We believe it will be a valuable addition to our district as we strive for consistent rigor within our academic offerings.
Of course, a successful school year is not possible without a strong partnership between educators, families, and the community. We encourage your active participation in your child's education, whether it's volunteering at school, attending parent-teacher conferences, or simply checking in with them about their day. Together, we can create an exceptional learning experience for every student.
The first day of school can be filled with both excitement and nerves. We want to assure you that our dedicated faculty and staff are here to support you every step of the way.
For our returning students, welcome back! We look forward to seeing you grow and learn this year. For our new students and families, a heartfelt welcome to the White River family! The school year will begin on August 20, 2024.
We are in for a fantastic school year. Let's learn, explore, and achieve together!
Go Tigers!
