Buzz truly enjoyed the 7th grade choir concert tonight! They showed up n out!!!

We love our VVMS parents! Please, please please, come in and volunteer to supervise. We are offering work spaces for those who want to come during our passing time. This allows our parents to supervise halls during transition time but then hop back into an office to work. We're happy to accommodate! Shout to our parent volunteers this week! Love to see it!

Thank you to everyone who has volunteered already! We are loving having parents and caregivers around to help supervise our young Hornets during lunch and transition times. We have already noticed an improvement in language and behavior.

We are still looking for Somali speaking, Spanish speaking, and English speaking parent volunteers, to help with supervision. Please consider signing up for a shift, dates available through winter break:

Lunch volunteers - sign up here

Hall Monitors - sign up here

Thank you!!

**Working with middle school requires the right temperament. We mostly just need you to be smiley, and cheerful. We avoid practices that involve screaming or yelling. We prefer softer approaches that are kind but firm. Individuals volunteering are able to suspend bias and judgment and can offer support for all students. If you think this is you? Please help us in adding a greater eco-system like approach to how we guide and shepherd our young Hornets.

The VVMS PTO does not hold any other fundraisers throughout the year, this is your chance to support our school!

Can you help us get there with a dues payment or consider an additional donation?

THANK YOU!!

The Minnesota Legislature passed a new statute that all schools must provide free menstrual products in bathrooms for students grades 4 through 12. 

Valley View Middle School will have a free dispenser installed in some bathrooms over the winter break. We encourage all parents to talk with their children about the natural body changes that occur in every child and how they can use these free menstrual products, if needed.
