We have three Viking Values here at
Warner that will help make our school
a place we love to learn and grow—
SAFETY, RESPONSIBILITY, &
RESPECT! In order to learn how to
do things The Warner Way, we will
discuss one value at a time. Now that
you have learned about safety and
respect, let’s talk about
responsibility. 
