Welcome to
Wildcat Country!
Principal's 2012-2013 Welcome
Welcome to the Donovan Jr. / Sr.
High School website. We hope that you find the information on this
website beneficial. We strive to reach all learners by exposing
students to a rigorous curriculum that is aligned with the Illinois
State Learning Standards. Teaching students the skills and values they
need in order to become productive, successful members of society is our
mission. Differentiating instruction and focusing on strategies to
improve reading skills is a primary focus along with offering a
curriculum that includes core subjects, the fine arts, and the
vocations.
Developing positive working
relationships with students, parents, guardians, and all stakeholders is
a responsibility we take very seriously. Parents and educators are
encouraged to have regular contact to discuss their child’s educational
progress. I look forward to serving the students, parents, and
community members of Beaverville, Donovan, Iroquois, Martinton, and
surrounding rural areas during the upcoming 2012-2013 school year.
Please feel free to contact me with any questions or concerns. Let’s
have a great year!
Mr. Jason Bauer
