WRV HS Construction Class - looking for projects

The WRV Construction Students are looking for projects. If anyone is interested, the class can build small storage barns, chicken coops, hunting blinds or shacks. These structures would be built on skids or runners giving you the ability to trailer the structure to your desired location. If interested please contact the high school office or Mr. Tarr at rtarr@wrv.k12.in.us. Cost would be the amount of the materials plus a small donation to the program.

BE Initiative - September - BE INVOLVED AND BE AMBITIOUS

There is overwhelming research that supports students getting involved in their school culture. Students are encouraged to explore one of the many clubs and activities we have here at WRV HS. The benefits help the student and the school.

“You teach me, I forget. You show me, I remember. You involve me, I understand."
