Look for the special envelope coming home with news about School Picture Day. The prices for photo packages will be on the envelope. Every student in school will have his or her picture taken that day. It is up to each family to decide whether or not it wishes to purchase a photo package. If a student is absent a make-up picture day follows about a week later. If you think you want to purchase pictures the money needs to be sent in the envelope that day with the necessary information.

Back to School Night is coming up on Oct.8, 5:30 - 6:30 p.m. It is an evening designed to give families the opportunity to visit classrooms, meet the teaching staff, and learn what your child's teacher has planned for the year. Join Mr. Klein in the auditorium at 5:30 where he will introduce the faculty before the two brief classroom presentations. We'll look forward to seeing you there.

Valley View Elementary now officially has a website. Designed to help staff, parents, students and volunteers connect through a digital community, we hope it helps in all of Valley View's endeavors.

A warm welcome to all.
