As we focus on gratitude this month, I wanted to offer you a quick and easy opportunity to show your gratitude to a Valerius staff member. If you have a minute and would like to complete this form, I will share these nice gifts with the teachers/staff next Tuesday.

GRATITUDE FOR STAFF

We enjoyed a beautiful weekend, but the temperatures are expected to drop into the 20s tomorrow. Please be sure to send your student with a winter coat, boots, hats, and gloves to ensure they stay warm. We go outside as long as the temperature (with windchill) is 10 degrees or above.

December calendars seem to fill up fast, so be sure to save space for Valerius Pride and Spirit Night at the UHS basketball games on Friday, December 13th. Students will receive a free pass to get into the games.

Girls play at 6:15 and boys play at 7:45. Mrs. Cole plans to attend both games!
