Here are a few snaps from 8th grade graduation. Enjoy!

The Portal to check student's grades will be available on June 7th. It is currently unavailable until then so teachers and staff can make important updates

Summer Nutrition

Edina Public Schools does not provide any meals in the summer. 

If you are looking for a site to get breakfast or lunch for your student, you can find a location by downloading the Free Meals for Kids mobile app at https://hungerimpactpartners.org/meals-for-kids/mobile-app-2/

Winner Winner Chicken Dinner!

Congratulations to our three students who won big because of their commitment to the Valley View Vibe and the tickets they were given for generosity and going remarkably beyond the expectation. 


And a  huge thank you to the families that made this possible through their generosity!

Harley the Service Dog Visits VVMS

Here are some pictures from Harley's visit with some of our Valley View students during Flex on 5/28. The kids were so happy to have him in the building and get to interact with him. He's such a sweet dog and hopefully he can visit more often next year.
