Learning for Careers

Big changes in West Valley Junior High's seventh grade science.  Curriculum is connecting the MS Life Science standards set by the Next Gen Science Standards to careers as medical professionals. 

 "Connecting to life beyond West Valley is the driver for this change," said seventh grade science teacher, Kasey Robbins.  "Instead of telling them they need to know this material for their future, let's show them how they will need these skills to lead successful and meaningful lives."

 Students are all earning their First Aid and CPR certifications as a core component of the course.

For students who build a strong passion in Health Science, West Valley High School has an Allied Health program available for them.
