About White River School District
Description provided by the district or community — not part of the NCES dataset.
White River School District is strongly focused on providing the best education possible to prepare our students for successes during their school years and beyond. The district has approximately 4,000 students served by four elementary schools, a middle school, a high school, and a unique tri-district cooperative for alternative programs. "What's Best for Kids": The basic ideas of "What's Best for Kids", and that everyone should be valued, drive the decision-making process throughout the district activities. These simple but powerful beliefs are the foundation of our Strategic Plan and our efforts to align curriculum with the current concepts of educational reform. "Our Mission": Ensure high levels of learning for all students preparing them for successes beyond high school.
