Girls Basketball Team Attends Summer Camp
The Williams Valley Girls Basketball Team attended the North Carolina Team Camp this summer in
preparation for their upcoming season. During their trip the girls had the opportunity to visit Duke
University and Cameron Arena on their way to Chapel Hill. The girls competed in eight games and
also played in Carmichael Arena as well as the Dean Smith Center. The girls represented Williams
Valley very well at camp. Their hard work, skill ability, enthusiasm and teamwork were present in
every game. The girls are looking forward to using this experience as a building block for the upcoming season. The staff and players would like to thank the parents, Mr. Shuey, Girls Basketball Boosters,
and the Williams Valley Board of Education for making the trip possible. The Lady Vikings hope to
make this a tradition so that other team members can share in this experience in years to come.
Team Members include:
Haley Nestor, Katie Whelski,
Hannah Nestor, Olivia
Ancheff, Cassie Schorr,
Autumn Calnon, Bindy Boyer
and Emily Wessner.
In compliance with Title IX of the Education Amendments of 1972 the Williams Valley School District states
that the District does not discriminate on the basis of sex in admission to or employment in its education
programs or activities.

Schuylkill County Youth Summit , Autumn

and Roofina Ali are pictured with Schuylkill
County Commissioners Hess (far left) and
Halcovage (far right) following the recent
Youth Ambassadors Meeting on September
16th in Pottsville. The Youth Summit brings
together students from all the school districts
in Schuylkill County to discuss issues pertinent
to young people in Schuylkill County. The 201415 focus project for the Youth Summit is a campaign focused on educating the public on distracted driving especially texting and driving.
The Youth Ambassadors will be hosting 3 Town
Meetings at various locations throughout the
county during the month of October to discuss the importance of this issue and how it relates to driver training programs in school districts.
Williams Valley will be involved in the Town Meeting that will be held on October 23rd at 6:00 p.m. at
Sweet Arrow Lake Park. Tri-Valley, Pine Grove, Blue Mountain and Schuylkill Haven School Districts
will also be represented at this meeting.
The Williams Valley Youth Summit once again collaborated
with a community organization for their Murals for the
Community Project. During the months of June, July and
August, members of the Youth Summit and other volunteers
from the junior-senior high school completed a 140 foot
mural on the bathhouse building of the Porter-Tower
Community Pool. The group worked in conjunction with the
Porter-Tower Recreation Commission to complete this project and they wish to thank Mrs. Bonnie Raho for all her help
in coordinating the project. The artists pictured here are
Rachael Reiner, Kate Vega, Kassie Jones, Stephen Schlegel and
Roofina Ali. Other students and alumni who helped with the
project were: Ronald Reedy, Lindy Kraska, Faizan Ali, Anoshay
Ali, Alyssa Raho, Chelsea Ferraro, and Samantha Mione.
In order to purchase the supplies needed to create the mural for the Porter-Tower Community
Pool, the Youth Summit group applied for and
received a grant of $500 from the Schuylkill
County Commissioners. This was a matching grant
so the students sponsored a community splash
party to earn the matching funds for the grant.
The party was held on July 31st. Pictured here are
some of the swimmers who took a break from the
water to participate in one of the “on land”
games. Food, music, games, prizes and, of course,
swimming were enjoyed by all who attended the
event.

STUDENT ACTIVITY FEE
The Williams Valley School District’s Board of Education recognizes the importance of athletics,
clubs, and extracurricular activities to a well-rounded education. In addition, “behind the wheel”
driver training and the ability of students to drive to school are privileges which Williams Valley continues to provide while many other school districts have ceased to allow them because of the
expense the school district incurs. The imposing of a student activity fee helps to defray some of
the costs of these programs such as advisor/coach stipends, transportation, materials, uniforms,
and equipment thus allowing the programs to continue.
Participation in any or all of the following activities will require the one-time payment of the Student
Activity Fee:
All junior high, junior varsity and varsity sports
All clubs.
Jazz Band
Marching Band
Williams Valley Singers
Cheerleading
All student drivers
All students who plan to take “behind the wheel” driver training.
Checks may be made payable to: Williams Valley School District
The fee and the Student Activity Fee Form must be handed into Mrs. Jolene Smith in the District
Office prior to the start of the student’s participation in any of the above listed activities.
**Students participating in any club must have the fee and Activity Fee Form submitted to Mrs.
Smith on or before the first day of the club. The signature page is available on the school web page
under Student Activity Fee Form.
Members of the Fall sports teams participated in
several games during the 1st pep rally of the 2014-15
school year prior to the Tri-Valley vs Williams Valley
football game. Pictured (l tor) are Jenna Daniel
(volleyball), Ryan Harris (football), Rylie Thomas
(volleyball), Albert Wolfgang (football), Olivia Ancheff
(volleyball), and Mike Bixler (band & soccer) preparing to sit on Brandon Bopp (band & soccer).
Two representatives from each of the grade levels
competed in a contest in which one of the students had to feed a dog bone shaped cookie (Beat
those DAWGS!) suspended from a fishing pole to
their blindfolded classmate. Seniors Olivia Ancheff
and Haley Nestor are pictured along with juniors,
Kate Whelski and Tre Engle. Cheerleaders, Brooke
Miller and Allison Auman enjoy the hilarity of the
competition.

Title I Connections
It is hard to believe that we have been back in school for almost six weeks! The Title I staff is looking
forward to a successful school year. We recognize that in order to be successful in school, our children need support from both home and school. We know a strong partnership with you will make a
great difference in your child’s education. As partners, we share the responsibility for the children’s
achievement and want you to know that we will do our very best to carry out these responsibilities.
Miss Cheyenne Colondato joins the Title 1 staff this year. She will be working with reading skills for
Grades K, 1, and 2. Mrs. Kristina Miller will return as the Reading Specialist for Grades 3, 4, and 5. Mrs.
Robin Fetter will also assist with reading skills for grades 3 and 6 as well as lend math support. Mrs.
Melissa Balsavage will provide math support to the primary grades as well as 4th and 6th grade. Mrs.
Jen Minnich will be coordinating the RTI (Response to Intervention) program at the primary level.
All Title 1 teachers work closely with the classroom teacher to ensure success for the students.
It is important to remember that all successes, big or small, are meaningful. Each child will progress
at his or her own rate, developing skills when he or she is ready. Preserving each child’s self-esteem
and building a secure, respectful foundation for growth will always remain a priority.
Below are some suggestive ideas that may be a benefit to you and your child.
•
Encourage your child to spend time reading daily. Research shows that children who spend
at least 30 minutes a day reading are more likely to become good readers.
•
Help your child become a regular visitor to the library. Encourage your child to select a book
of interest.
•
Select a book for you to read. You will be setting an example of the importance of reading for
your child.
•
Challenge your child with new vocabulary words. Words with multiple meanings are
challenging for students.
Promoting your child’s love of reading is one of the most important things you can do to put your
child on the road to school success. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact any of the
Title 1 teachers listed above or Mrs. Jolene Smith, Title I Coordinator.
Parking & “Behind the Wheel” Driver Education Fee
Due to the continued rise in costs and the decrease in various subsidy funds from the state and
local governments the Williams Valley School District has found it necessary to continue impose
a modest fee for the privilege of driving to school and parking on school property and for students who wish to take advantage of the “behind the wheel” driver training. The fees for the
2013-14 school year will remain the same as last year:
• Student Parking Fee - $15.00
• Behind the Wheel Driver Training - $20.00
**Student drivers and students who plan to take the “behind the wheel” training must also pay
the $20 Student Activity Fee.
Questions concerning these fees may be directed to Mrs. Jolene Smith in the District Office. 717-6472167, Ext. 1224.
