West Valley Innovation Center - Mission and Vision

 West Valley Innovation Center

Mission and Vision for our Learners

The last couple of weeks have moved us forward in bettering serving our students.  As of today, West Valley JH Principal, Russ Tuman, has been named as the 2021-22 Principal of the West Valley Innovation Center and we are ready to begin the real work  We will use the Career Connected Learning Blog as a way to keep our community informed in the development of the Innovation Center. 

Some of the work ahead of us includes hiring our teachers, adopting curriculum, and approving our new school platform.  Ahead of us there is a lot of work but before any of that work can begin, we need to ground ourselves in a Mission and Vision of the West Valley Innovation Center.  



Core Values

We have some core values already identified which are non-negotiable in educational practice which are good for kids.

  • Full Inclusion Educational Model
  • Career Pathways and Post Secondary Connections
  • Competency Based Learning / Mastery Learning 
  • Project Based Learning 
  • Students will have Voice and Choice in showing how they have mastered standards
From this base we feel confident in the development of a model that will best serve our students.
