Message from Ms. Misner

Dear Spring Valley Families,

We are about a month away from the end of the 2023/2024 School Year! I am so proud of all of the accomplishments our students have had this school year and look forward to finishing the school year strong together!

The close of the school year brings with it many exciting celebrations. Please be sure to check out the upcoming events section of this newsletter and mark your calendars accordingly.

Our students will be taking their end of year assessments (NWEA and Fastbridge) beginning the week of May, 6th. Please make sure that your child is well rested and arrives to school on time.

As always, please feel free to reach out with any questions or concerns. We appreciate your partnership as we work together to help all our students SOAR both academically and socially.

Take Care,

Heather L. Misner

Principal, Spring Valley Center for Exploration

Teacher/School Staff Appreciation Week is May 6th-10th this year. We will be showing our amazing staff lots of love next week and would love for you and your children to participate as well!

Think about sending a note or token of appreciation to your child's teacher anytime during the week. I know it would mean a lot to them!

Spring Valley Walk-A-Thon

PTO Sponsored Walk-A-Thon

The PTO is sponsoring a Walk-A-Thon to raise funds for school events. This will take place on May 22nd . Your child will be bringing a Pledge Sheet home to collect donations from family and friends.

If you would like to volunteer to help along the course and cheer our students on, please email Trudy Campbell at springvalleyelempto@gmail.com or contact the Main Office.

Attendance: Every Day Counts!

As the school years draws to a close please be sure to continue to make positive attendance a priority! It is so important for our students to be in school. Missing 10% or more of the school year negatively impacts our students and their academic growth.

Thank you for continuing to partner with us by getting your student to school on time, every day!

If your student is struggling to come to school, please reach out!
