Collaborator
Collaborators hear, acknowledge, and appreciate a diversity of perspectives in conversation. They foster strong group dynamics by remaining open to varied opinions and valuing the input of others. They solicit suggestions from others when forming ideas and solving problems, and consult multiple sources to inform their opinions and conclusions. Collaborators unite those around them to achieve a common goal.
Communicator
Communicators connect with people who are both like and unlike them. Communicators read and listen; they carefully research and ask questions. They know their topics, know their audiences, and are able to grasp broad ideas to distill and make them digestible for others. They write, speak and present their ideas digitally in ways that advance learning by educating and empowering.
Creator/Innovator
Creators/Innovators utilize their imagination and evidence-based knowledge. They strategize to solve problems, investigate answers to their own questions, and meet challenges with solutions to further their own learning. They often share their ideas and feelings through the arts, design and building processes. Similar to Collaborators, Creators/Innovators consider information from different sources and apply it in new ways to make things, disseminate ideas or provide solutions. They carefully examine their sources and consider the potential impact on others.
Resilient Individual
Resilient Individuals make good choices that enable them to persevere when challenges arise. They choose to maintain a healthy body and mind, and surround themselves with supportive, positive people. They stay goal-oriented and tackle tasks through successful planning. Resilient Individuals understand that self-reflection and advocacy are keys to growth and self-improvement.
Problem Solver
Problem Solvers, when faced with unique challenges, are equipped with the knowledge and drive necessary to face those challenges with understanding and ingenuity. They recognize society’s needs and come up with original ideas, offer astute alternatives, and identify unseen connections that lead to new solutions. Problem Solvers are generous with their efforts toward a positive resolution, and unselfish about the benefits those ends will deliver to the community.
Ethical and Global Citizen
Ethical and Global Citizens are neighbors to the world, exhibiting empathy, compassion, and respect for others. They strive to understand a variety of cultures and perspectives outside their own, including language study. They consider the issues of the day through the lens of local, national, and global perspectives – from social issues to environmental issues. Ethical and Global Citizens must act with integrity, be community-minded and understand the foundations of our nation – both rights and privileges – and the responsibilities we share to others in the global community.
Lifelong Learner
Lifelong Learners don’t just love learning, they are dedicated to understanding themselves and their world more and more over time. They are enthusiastic and hopeful about what new knowledge they may be able to obtain from and for their global community. Lifelong Learners can be professionals dedicated to their research, artists committed to expression, or anyone who has made self-directed learning an essential part of their personal growth. They honor the work of their teachers by embracing and continuing their own education beyond the classroom for their lifetime.

The Warwick Valley Central School District provides an educational value that is unmatched in the region.
Great Schools, Great Community
As a home to more than 30,000 residents, Warwick is celebrated for its rural charm, rich farmland and vibrant history. Generations of Wildcats have flourished here, coming together through community traditions like Applefest, school plays and concerts, as well as Homecoming Parade – a tradition like no other in the region. Our farmers, business owners and neighbors help shape our students’ educational experiences.
Nestled in the scenic Hudson Valley, Warwick has a rich farming history that remains evident in its rolling hills, tranquil pastures and enduring agricultural traditions. Dairy farming, which once dominated the landscape, no longer occupies its former position of preeminence. Today, Warwick’s residents represent a vibrant mix of people: from farmers who carry on the area’s agricultural legacy to Wall Street bankers who commute to New York City, and much more. Warwick’s dynamic and diverse population provides a unique blend of rural tradition and metropolitan influence.
Warwick’s iconic homecoming parade paints the town purple and gold every year. This end-of-summer tradition draws hundreds to take part in a lively procession down Main Street led by Warwick Valley marching band, followed by groups of students from every school, Wildcats athletics teams, Warwick Valley teachers and administrators, classic cars, and of course members of the homecoming court and the class floats. No one does homecoming like Warwick Valley does homecoming!
Warwick Valley Performing and Visual Arts programs keep our students engaged and our Warwick neighbors entertained year-round. From winter and spring concerts to fall plays and spring musicals, gallery exhibits to makers markets, the community is invited to enjoy. Our artists take pride in delivering performances and pieces that entertain and inspire, and appreciate the generous and enthusiastic support they receive from their audiences.
