Valley View News

Valley View would like to thank the PTO for putting on a wonderful Fall Festival last week. We had a great turnout and we appreciate all the volunteers who helped set up, run games, cook food, organize baskets, clean up, and donated baked goods. It was a wonderful success!

We are super excited for the month of October! So many fun things will be taking place in the building this month. School Pictures October 3rd, Grandparents (special person) lunches are the 14th to through the 18th. Guest must register in advance or they will not be permitted to enter the building. See the schedule below for more details. We will also be having our Fall Harvest Parties and costume parade on the 31st. Classroom teachers will be sending out information specific to their parties. A map is included in this news letter for the parade. The time of the parade and the route have changed to hopefully assist families who wish to come so that you can see the parade and then stay for dismissal.

The American Legion donated new playground equipment! The kids love the hula hoops, jump ropes, 4-square balls, footballs, soccer balls, and basketballs. THANK YOU!

We are working to get our Mindful Moments Cart rolling! Our intention is to encourage our staff to take a moment and remember they are critical in the success plan for our students. Working with students is extremely rewarding and fulfilling but it is also very stressful and demanding. Our amazing staff works tirelessly to create the best learning environment for each of our students. We are seeking donations of small bags of snack, candy, drinks, gum.

We are also planning activities each month to focus on physical, mental, and emotional wellbeing for the staff. We are looking for monthly sponsors for these activities. If you or someone you know is interested in this monthly sponsorship reach out to Mrs. Hamsher at khamsher@wadsworthschools.org or call the main office.

If you are looking for a fun and functional present for your loved ones this coming gift giving season we will be kickin off a Spirit wear fundraiser soon! Stay tuned for more information.
