Middle/High School
Mr. Steven Van Wyhe
Welcome to Auburndale Schools!
Having graduated from Auburndale High School myself, I know first-hand the values that Auburndale instills into our students. The values of respect and hard-work are evident in them. Those values are instilled first at home and then reinforced at school by our teaching staff. We have a top-notch teaching staff, who go above and beyond for our students.
Wherever the future is going to take our students, our goal is to have them prepared. Our electives give students an opportunity to find out what possibilities best fit them as they move onto the next step in their lives. We offer electives in music, agriculture, tech ed, family & consumer sciences, Spanish, and business, and we have many students in Youth Apprenticeships and the School-to-Work program. Whether students are interested in a four-year college, tech school, or going straight into the workforce; our mission is to have them prepared.
Outside of school, we have many extra-curriculars available for our students. Our coaches work to instill sportsmanship as they prepare our student-athletes for competition. I encourage you to attend our athletic events, as well as drama productions and band/choral concerts, to see our students represent their community. We are proud of them!
Auburndale is not too big for your child to fall through the cracks, but also large enough to give them many opportunities to prepare for the future. You can stop by anytime for a tour of our schools. I look forward to meeting you!
