Welcome back Little Indians!


You may be asking yourself why we chose to change the format of our weekly bulletin. The answer is that we strive to be innovative, creative, and be a 21st Century learners and leaders. Although we were satisfied with the content of our Principal's Press, we knew there had to be a "fresher," more engaging way to share the same information, plus more. A fabulous feature of this new bulletin is that it allows us to embed videos plus added bonuses, like pictures celebrating great things that are happening on our campus, and relevant articles and web links to keep our professional learning going throughout the year.


Another great thing that I think some of you will love is that you can create these same "newsletters" for your classrooms for FREE. You can even link it in with Class Dojo and just send parents to your newsletter site to showcase some of the incredible learning going on in your classrooms. It's a great home/school connection. I can't wait to see what features smore.com has to offer. I encourage you to also try something new this year!!!

Our VBE vision for 2016/2017

During our 2015/2016 school year, we asked for volunteers that would like to participate in a planning committee before school on Thursdays. We had an incredible turn-out, full of great ideas and inspiration that helped us streamline our vision for next year.


Thank you so much to everyone who was a part of that. OUR VIBE has DEFINITELY attracted our TRIBE. We are so excited for all the new "Secret Weapon Staff" that we have brought into our TRIBE.
