@WVHSRams hungry for something different than school lunch today? Check out the Ridge school cafe for some great options. Pick up your Ram gear here as well.

Pushing services into the classroom creates high levels of engagement as all students get what they need. Inclusionary practices at work! 🔥🔥💯 @suptfinch @WVSD208

Due to icy roads, a 2 hour late start today..

Love this example of small group instruction - the teacher is providing individualized attention with a small group of students while other students are meaningfully engaged in learning with a partner or via independent work. @WVSD208 @KatieNovakUDL @Catlin_Tucker

Great turn-out for our morning session at the AASA National Conference. Thnx to everyone who attended. Grateful to share high impact, low cost strategies for early learning, such as "Play & Learn" groups. @AASAHQ @ManuszakEdward @WVSD208 #Learning2025 #AASAEarlyEd #NCE2023

Secondary Special Education Teachers during collaboration time participating in student talk as they discuss their answers to the essential question posed to them, "What is the value of Special Educators being part of General Education PLC groups?" @WVSD208

A1 #suptchat We continue to make progress with inclusionary practices every year with a greater percentage of students served for a greater portion of their day in regular ed settings with peers. Improvements in every school in West Valley in 2022. @KatieNovakUDL @LucasJaeger_coG

Admin team learning walks. Focus on student choice for recruiting interest. Students chose their topic for this project - creating informational videos about equipment - authenticity as the videos will be used to educate new students. @KatieNovakUDL

Thnx to all of our HS students who helped younger students at our Winter Wonderland celebration before tonight's basketball game. Fun activities included arts & crafts, board games, & photos with the "Love on a Leash" dogs! Best wishes to all for a great winter break! ❄️ @WVSD208

[Dr. Peter Finch @suptfinch]

Over half of all sixth grade students in West Valley performed in band or choir (some in both groups!) at tonight's concert! Awesome turn-out by family members! What a night! 🎉 @WVSD208

Belonging precedes achievement—for all people. Spaces that tell the story of belonging let each person know they’re essential. When you’re essential you aren’t “added” as a guest & cannot be “subtracted”… we all need that & benefit. #youbelonghere @waOSPI
