Corey Graves
Superintendent of Schools

Dear Families & Community Members,

Welcome to the 2023-24 school year.  As we embark on this journey together, I am delighted to extend my heartfelt gratitude for your continued support and dedication to the Stockbridge Valley CSD.

Over the years, our community has stood strong, overcoming challenges, and celebrating numerous achievements. As the new school year begins, I am thrilled to emphasize our commitment to continued collaboration, building on traditions and fostering a culture of excellence throughout our district.

Collaboration has been the bedrock of our success. It is the spirit of togetherness that propels us forward, ensuring that we provide our students with the best educational experience possible. Together, we have achieved so much, and together, there is no limit to what we can accomplish. Our partnership with parents, students, teachers, staff and community members is invaluable, and I am certain that this collaboration will lead us to new heights in academic, social and emotional growth for all our students.

As we continue to build on our time-honored traditions, let us also remain open to innovative ideas and adapt to the evolving needs of our learners. Our traditions serve as the foundation upon which we stand, instilling a sense of belonging and pride.  

It has never been more important to be focused, aligned and intentional in our work. Throughout the last few months we have conducted a formal strategic planning process to guide our district into the future.  We are very excited to share the results of our collaborative efforts to develop plans that will help us continue to grow and improve as we strive for excellence in all that we do. 

More information on our “Blueprint for Excellence” strategic plan can be found here:

A culture of excellence is not simply a goal; it is an ongoing journey.  Our schools will continue to provide a safe, inclusive, and supportive environment where every student is valued and empowered to reach their full potential. We will strengthen our curriculum, integrate technology and offer diverse extracurricular activities to cater to the unique interests and talents of our students.

I am confident that this academic year will be marked by achievements, growth and a sense of community that binds us together. Together, we will inspire, learn and lead, shaping the next generation of leaders, thinkers and innovators.

In closing, let us embrace the challenges and triumphs that lie ahead with enthusiasm and dedication. Your continuous support and engagement will be instrumental in our collective success. I encourage you to actively participate in school events, parent-teacher conferences, and community gatherings to strengthen our bonds and amplify the positive impact we can have on our students.

Thank you for entrusting us with the education and well-being of your children. I am truly honored to serve as your Superintendent and look forward to witnessing the accomplishments that we will achieve together.

Wishing you all a wonderful and fulfilling school year!

Mr. Corey Graves
