The best type of school experience is one that arouses intellectual curiosity in students. Wythe County has a staff of over 300 dedicated, professional teachers, with over one-third of them holding master s degrees or greater. All professional personnel hold Virginia Licenses and are teaching within their fields of certification. The Wythe County School Board feels strongly that a solid, comprehensive program be available to any student who wants to take advantage of the opportunity. Students may attain advanced studies, regular, or special diplomas as well as certificates of program completion.
Accelerated classes are also available at all high school grades in selected core studies.
Spanish and French are offered in all secondary schools. Each secondary school has its own vocational program which includes agriculture, business, marketing, technology education, and work and family studies. Annually the Wythe County Public Schools Programs of Studies is published, outlining fully the instructional program at each high school. Copies of this publication are available at each high school and at the Wythe County School Board Office, and on the school system's web site. During the past fifteen years, all three secondary schools have been remodeled and renovated with an emphasis on science, computer, and business laboratories.
