Be Proud Program

Be Proud Program The Be Proud Program is sponsored by the Wayne Board of Education to offer High School students an opportunity to join a voluntary drug and alcohol prevention program.

It provides students a way, along with their peers, to take a collective stand against all substance abuse and receive support and validation in selecting a healthy lifestyle. During their high school years, Be Proud members pledge to remain drug and alcohol free and submit to random voluntary screening. Participation in the program is kept confidential.

Random testing takes place each week throughout the school year. Each participating student's identification number is placed into a pool. Students are randomly selected from all program participants using a computer generated algorithm that identifies students by number. A positive test results in the Wayne Board of Education's Voluntary Random Drug Testing Policy being activated. Parents and students will be notified of any tests and their results.

Budget Update

Budget Update At the February 20 Special Public Meeting of the Board of Education, the administration presented the preliminary budget to be submitted to the county for review.

Click here to view a copy of what was presented.

Please note that the preliminary budget does not represent the final fiscal decisions for the 2014-15 school year. Rather, it represents a statutory obligation to adopt a preliminary budget for the purpose of submitting it to the County Office of the Department of Education for their review.

The Board of Education is committed to work with the Administration to ensure that the preliminary budget is reduced to no more than a 2% tax levy increase when the final budget is adopted. More work will take place over the next couple of months to finalize all the budgetary decisions.
Sportsmanship by Example

Sportsmanship Interscholastics sports programs play an important role in the high school experience for hundreds of our student athletes in Wayne each year. The opportunities to participate in such experiences promote health, wellness, discipline, teamwork, leadership, respect, and other core values that can lead to success in and out of the classroom. We maintain high expectations of all student athletes and coaches to exhibit behaviors that reflect positively on the team, school and school district.

However, each game, match, or competition also brings spectators who come out to support our student athletes and sports programs. Please consider all the ways that you contribute to the positive sports culture in our high schools.
