Purpose

Our purpose at WODHS Wellpinit Classroom provides an opportunity for students to 1) complete a program leading to graduation by earning a high school diploma or GED, and a successful post-graduate career in one of four areas; college, vocational, military, or trades. 2) Provide our students with the skills to live as productive, contributing members of society. We accomplish this through innovative use of technology, broad-based curricula, diverse teaching strategies focused on students’ individual needs, occupational trade-skills, community involvement, and varied authentic assessment of progress and performance. Wellpinit Open Doors High School embodies its purpose through our expectations of students and staff.

We believe Trustworthiness, Respect, Responsibility, Fairness, and Caring should be part of every student's educational experience. Social and emotional development is considered a part of overall instruction. Students will build awareness and skills in managing emotions, setting goals, establishing relationships, and making responsible decisions that support school and life success.

Whether it be fiscal, educational, or social-emotional, every decision is focused on the purpose of helping students achieve their graduation and post-graduation goals.
