"With the help of YouScience, we are able to see what each student is innately skilled at (aptitude) and has interest in (interest), and can align each student's education plan and work/career connected experience while at Wallowa High School in motion.  Students will be challenged to try things they are innately skilled in and may/ may not yet have an interest...with the goal of students better having a grasp on what they wish to pursue post high school"

In addition to credits for graduation, students have been required to meet the essential skills competency according to the State of Oregon.  Work samples or other approved methods in writing, reading, math throughout a student's high school career will provide documentation of skills. This requirement will resume with the class of 2027-28.

Dual credit courses offer students an opportunity to simultaneously earn high school and college credit. Wallowa accomplishes this by partnering with colleges who support our teachers with curriculum, syllabi, as well as the scope and sequence of the course. Virtual course offerings are available, provided by IMESD teachers.  These are rigorous courses that have additional requirements due to their dual credit structure. Depending on the course, dual credit may or may not have fees attached. If there is a cost, it is usually at a significantly reduced rate and Wallowa School District strives to cover any tuition-related student balances.
