June 2024

This year we will be adding school day student tours to our transition activities. All students will travel with their elementary classmates to their assigned middle school for tour guided by our 8th grade student leaders.

Victor Falls students will tour on June 3rd. The field trip information and permission forms have been sent home. Please make sure that your students have turned those in by 5/31.

The fifth Grade Moving Up Ceremony and Field trip will be on June 13th. Permission slips will be going home soon. The ceremony is scheduled to begin at 9:10 in the MPR. More information will be sent home with your 5th grade student by 6/3.

Can you believe it? We are already nearing the end of the year and that means.....Field Day! This fun end of the year celebration is not possible without the help of lots of volunteers- we need you! :) Field Day will take place on Friday, June 14. We will have two sessions, one in the morning for our primary students (K-2) and one in the afternoon for our intermediate students (3-5). Please click the link to sign up to help! Thank you!

This Spring, Tiffany Wehr opened up Victor Falls' very first Spring Writing and Art Competition! Third, fourth, and fifth graders were given the opportunity to submit creative works of writing and/or art to be considered for publication in Mrs. Wehr's Literary Journal. Over forty submissions were made! From these submissions a group of teacher-judges got together and collaborated about which works best represented the journal's Spring theme. Take a moment to read and enjoy the selected works of some incredibly talented Falcons using the link below! You may even know some of the artists and authors!

I would like to thank each of you for the incredible support you showed our young Music Makers during their concerts this year. Your enthusiasm, encouragement, and presence made a world of difference to our musicians, and I am deeply appreciative of your commitment to their musical journey.

Again, thank you for your continued support and for being such an integral part of our musical falcon family. I look forward to seeing you again next year, or if this is your final year at VFE, I look forward to seeing your child continue making music at the next level.

Sincerely,

Ryan Payne

The General PTO Meeting will be held on 6/10 at 4:15pm in the VFE Library. All parents and families are encouraged to attend!

Our lost and found is once again Overflowing! Please ask your student to check the lost and found for missing items or parents can come look through before or after school. All unclaimed items will be donated by 6/25.

With warmer temperatures, please be sure that your student has a water bottle with them daily.

If you have a child in Kindergarten or 1st grade, please ensure they have an extra pair of clothing in their backpack.

Being at school, on time, every day is critical for students' success. Our teachers have planned engaging and important work for the school days and it is important for your child's social-emotional, and academic success that they are here as much as possible.

Our goal is 95% daily attendance. That means students missing 9 of less days in the year. Studies show that this leads to greater student success later in life.

We are encouraging all families to apply for free/reduced lunch. Please use the link below to apply. If you would prefer a paper copy, please call the office at 253-891-4700.
