WAVA Families and Students

This month we celebrate thanks to our Veterans and a month of Giving as we continue into Fall. We are proud of each student and the hard work and dedication in the classroom. Thank you learning coaches for your support and participation in your students academic success. This month we encourage students to be present, attend your live classes on time, join a club or competiton, try turning your camera on and reach out to others to make connections.

November is our month of 7 Mindset Live to Give. What ways can you give to others or yourself this month in school and at home? Think about a new goal you can commit to that to reflect on living to give. Participate in our Veterans Day Video or our Giving drive. Throughout the month you will see SEL sessions on your schedule. Our counseling team offers 7 Mindset and SEL sessions and opportunities to learn and connect and grow. Take time to attend these optional sessions.

WAVA Clubs are meeting weekly, meet WAVA friends and connect with others.

WAVA students have unique stories to share. You can share a special story about your family, student or experience at WAVA with our Project Elevate team. These stories go to our Stride PR team and are shared out with local and National news publications. Share your story with us, https://www.elevate.press/link.

November is a time for giving and thankfulness. Post your photos and share with your fellow students on the WAVA Padlet, https://www.tinyurl.com/wavapadlet. Enjoy November WAVA!

Executive Director, Susan Boyer

Career and Technical Education (CTE) teaches the college and career skills students need to be successful after high school. In addition to core courses required for graduation, students' electives allow them to explore different career fields and gain skills that can help them be successful in the workplace and in college. Whether students intend to go to college, are working in their career field now, or plan to enlist or start their career right out of high school, the occupational programs offered can combine passion and interests with the skills needed to compete for jobs in high-demand fields.

WAVA’s Career Technical Education program includes courses taught by highly qualified professionals with industry experience. A minimum of 1.0 credits is required for graduation. A sequence of CTE courses can lead to completion of a Graduation Pathway. CTE students also have opportunities to participate in project-based learning, earn dual college credit and industry recognized technical certifications as well as seek student leadership roles in National Career and Technical Student Organizations (CTSO).

Students in grades 9-11 are enrolled in CTE courses to complete WA OSPI Graduation Requirements.

Students in grades 7 and 8 are automatically enrolled in the following introductory CTE courses*:

7th Grade: CTE Explorations

8th Grade: Computer Literacy and Achieving your Career and College Goals

*7th and 8th grade students can opt-out by choice. (Form)

If you’d like information about opting out, please contact Taylor Kreilmann: tkreilmann@k12.com or (253) 345-4485.
