For many of us, a new year inevitably brings attempts at challenging ourselves to try something new. And if any of you want your kids to step outside of their regular routines at school, you're in luck! Did you know both View and Valley have many wonderful
Lunch Clubs sponsored by
HVPTO? Some of our amazing teachers, along with the help of Principal Gluck and Principal Taylor, have come up with a wide variety of enjoyable and engaging activities for our kids to partake in as an alternative to the usual playground offerings.
All of the clubs align with HVPTO's official mission, which includes creating fun, meaningful experiences for all students through special events and activities. HVPTO funds grants, special projects and a long list of extras throughout the year, but the lunch clubs are some of our favorites. We are grateful to our participating teachers that think outside of the box to come up with new and entertaining clubs that are sure to appeal to kids with all sorts of interests.
Any burgeoning techies out there? The always dynamic and lively Ms. Gill and Mr. Kaplan both open up their classrooms during the week. Have a bookworm at home? Well, both the View and Valley libraries are open during lunch. View also hosts Coloring Club, Puzzle Club, Card Game Club, and the always packed Lego Club. Valley's 4th and 5th graders can build with Legos or Lincoln Logs (remember those?!), get creative with arts and crafts or test their knowledge with educational computer games. And the 5th graders have Mrs. Spann's class for the always popular Harry Potter club. Offerings for middle schoolers include Mrs. Infusino's Creative Club, Makerspace Club with Ms. Bell, Card Games with Ms. Lee, Book Club with Ms. Snyder, Ms. Fuller's Drama Club, and Board Game Club with Mr. Coleman.
Take a moment to discuss the available clubs with your child so they don't miss out. And be sure to thank our teachers when you see them for taking the extra time to ensure all our kids are happy and engaged during lunch.
