Vinton-area community meeting set for Feb. 13 at WBHS


Our vision is to create a safe environment that will facilitate optimal learning for all students to enable them to lead fulfilling and productive lives in an increasingly complex and rapidly changing technological society and to become active citizens within their community.

We believe…

The capacity for learning is inherent in every student. Clear goals and high expectations are an integral part of an interdisciplinary curriculum that utilizes technology and encompasses practical applications.

Each student is a valued individual within an environment that must be safe, where students, staff, parents, and community demonstrate a positive mutual respect for each other.

The staff is accountable for providing a variety of instructional approaches, but ultimately the student has the responsibility for learning. The staff will encourage students to participate in opportunities to contribute towards the improvement of their community by becoming active citizens.

Our motto is “Accept only the Best at WBHS.”
