Students need a pair of gym-type shoes that are only to be worn inside and have non-marking soles for any activity they might do in the new gym. The time that students will most likely use the gym is during P.E. and sporting events.
Upper wing students are given grade checks every Friday. These grade checks should be taken home to parents along with a “missing assignments” list as needed from each class. Students should take their daily planners home every day.

Valley Book Swap Success

The Valley Book Swap had a successful first week with 35 students who swapped a total of 82 books during lunch period on Wednesday, March 3^rd.

The Book Swap, started last year by Jared Rindlisbacher, a recent CVA-Valley graduate, for his Eagle Scout Project, encourages students to bring in books to trade on Wednesday lunch periods during the month of March. We're hoping to build on last Wednesday's success and surpass that total this Wednesday.

Students interested in swapping books should bring a signed form (download here) from home with the books they intend to trade. Anyone willing to donate books to the swap is welcome to do so. The Valley Book Swap is looking for more books at the 5^th-8^th grade level, in particular.
