WRJH -Welcome Back to the 26/27 SY!

Hello, WRJH Raiders!

I’m thrilled to be back for my second year at Waggoner Road Junior High as the 6th grade Assistant Principal and in the Reynoldsburg City School District. After an incredible first year, I’m excited to continue building relationships with our amazing students, staff, and families and to be part of the WRJH community.

This school year also marks my 25th year in education. I earned my Bachelor’s Degree in History and Master’s Degree in Education from The Ohio State University, along with a Master’s Degree in Educational Leadership from Ashland University.

When I’m not at school, I enjoy spending time with my wife, Emily, and our two daughters, Evelyn (13) and Charlotte (11). Emily and I have been married for 15 years, and we are very proud of our daughters, who have both earned their black belts in Tae Kwon Do! Evelyn also enjoys gymnastics, while Charlotte plays volleyball.

I’m looking forward to another fantastic year at Waggoner Road Junior High. Thank you for welcoming me into the WRJH family and for making my first year such a great experience. I can’t wait to see what we accomplish together this year,

Go Raiders!

Warm regards,
Mr. Hilsheimer
Assistant Principal, WRJH

Welcome Back WRJH Raiders!

My name is Mrs. April Oates, and I get to be the Assistant Principal for 7th Grade students here at Waggoner Road Junior High. I have a Bachelor's Degree from Ohio University in Middle Childhood Education, and a Master’s Degree in Educational Leadership from Ashland University.

I am married to my supportive husband named Frank, and have three sons, Jaxon (10), Christian (4), and Colton (2).

I am excited for the many things we have going on this year including our PBIS programs with multiple incentives. We have the 8th grade DC Trip in May, the homecoming parade, culture night, career day, dances, and so much more.

I am also excited to be working with many of the same students that I had last year as sixth graders.

As we begin the year we will remind students to Be Responsible, Be Respectful, and Be Safe. Your students will tell you that I often ask them to “not let temporary emotions cause a permanent decision to be made.”

I am so excited to continue to get to know you and your students this year. Let’s make it an amazing year! Let’s Go Raiders!

Welcome back WRJH Raiders!

I hope that everyone is excited as I am, to begin this 26-27 school year here at Waggoner Road Junior High! My name is Ben Harlan and I will be the 8th grade Assistant principal for this school year. This will be my 20th year in Education and my 11th year in administration with Reynoldsburg City Schools. I have a Bachelor's Degree In Elementary Education and a Master’s Degree in Educational Leadership.

I have been married to my wife Sara for 7 years and we have two wonderful children named Sadie (3 ½) and Grayson (6 ½). (See above picture of my amazing family)

I look forward to serving all of the WRJH students and families this school year and feel free to reach out with any support that I might be able to provide.

Let’s do this, Go Raiders!
