A message from Superintendent

Welcome to the 2025–2026 school year!

We are excited to welcome you to a new academic year filled with optimism, energy, and possibility. Our theme for the year—“Possibility”—reflects our shared belief that each day offers new opportunities to learn, grow, explore, and make meaningful progress.

One of the most significant opportunities this year will be collaborating with our community on the development of our Comprehensive School Improvement Plan (CSIP). More than just a document, our CSIP is a living commitment to excellence and continuous improvement—a framework designed to help every student thrive academically, socially, and emotionally.

Congratulations on being part of a school community where possibility isn’t just a word—it’s a mindset. With over 60% of our students connected to the military and many others representing generations of Pulaski County families, our Tiger community is rich in diversity, resilience, and shared purpose.

In Waynesville, we believe every student has exceptional potential and that there are many paths to success. Our mission remains steadfast: to prepare and empower individual lifelong learners for opportunities as citizens and leaders. This mission comes to life daily in our classrooms, where we celebrate growth and inspire students to envision not only what’s possible today—but what’s possible for the future they’re creating.

Throughout the summer, our dedicated staff has been hard at work preparing for a successful year, and we are ready to support every learner on their journey. Thank you for entrusting us with your child’s education. Here’s to a year full of growth, achievement, and possibility.

We encourage you to be involved. Check out our 2025-26 District School Year Calendar at a glance here, and our events calendar at right.
