Dear Families,

Thank you to everyone who came out to support our school at the recent WRVSU Art and Soul Concert and Art Show. It was truly wonderful to hear our choral and instrumental students perform together, and the student artwork on display was incredibly impressive. Events like this are a great reminder of the talent, creativity, and strong sense of community we share.

Interested in Helping Shape the Future of Our Middle School?



I am exploring the creation of a Middle School parent–teacher–administrator collaboration group, similar to a PTO, and I would love to hear from parents and caregivers who might be interested in helping shape it.

The past week has given us some excellent opportunities to see the talents and hard work of our students in the Arts. The production of Into the Woods showcased so many students in their love for the performing arts. The class of 2026 has been such a big presence in the drama club since arriving at White River Valley High School four years ago and last week's performance was the swan song for Andy Fors, Matt Bangerter, Courtney Curtis, Bennett Hanson, Andrew Champagne, Olivia Mullins, Briana Grant, Haley Grant, Addi Isham, Isaac Wimett, Jacob Benoit, Dawson Poland, Nuala Doyle, Ella LaFromboise and Aubrey Mackenzie. Their impact on the program and mentorship of the younger students has been incredible to watch and such a profound positive impact on our school community!
