Dear Vista Families,
Our 7th graders came back from CIMI this week with rave reviews! Teachers shared that it was a fantastic trip with a great group of students. We’re now looking forward to our 6th graders heading to Pali on Monday and are excited for another successful experience.
Parents, please know that I will continue to send updates as students travel to and from camp, including an estimated time of arrival as they get closer to home—just as I did for AstroCamp and CIMI. Be sure to check your email for the most up-to-date information during travel.
If you know a family who is not receiving these Wave Watch newsletters—and therefore would not receive these updates—please have them email Jasmin Martinez so she can ensure their email address is properly added.
Reminders:
-
Camp Attendance: If your child is not attending camp, they are still expected to attend school. We will have programming available for them to participate in here at Valley.
-
Campus Safety: Please remind your students to walk their bikes and scooters while on campus, including along the walkway into the front of the school and once they enter through the back gate. Keeping everyone safe is our shared responsibility.
-
Drop-Off Procedures: We kindly ask that there be no parent drop-offs at the back of the school. This is a courtesy we extend to our neighbors. Please use the valet or an alternative drop-off location to ensure students can enter campus safely.
Athletics Update:
We have a home game on Thursday against Adams. We’d love to see you come out and support our talented athletes!
5th Grade Career Day
We will be hosting a 5th grade Career Day on Tuesday, June 2, and are looking for volunteers to share their career and passions with our students. Our students are especially interested in fields like science, engineering, healthcare, the arts, and unique self-made careers, but we welcome a wide variety of professions. The day will include two sessions (morning and afternoon), with students rotating every 20 minutes for a 15-minute presentation and 5-minute Q&A. Volunteers will have the opportunity to present to all 5th grade classes in this rotation format. HERE is the interest form which closes on Friday, May 8. For questions, please contact Lara Hruska.
Middle School Career Day
Middle School Career Day on Thursday, June 4, and we’re looking for parent volunteers to participate!
We’re seeking individuals who are passionate about their careers and willing to share what you do, your educational and training path, and what you enjoy most about your work. This year’s event will be a career fair format, with each volunteer hosting a table and connecting with students in 1:1 or small group conversations. Time commitment: 8:35 AM – 11:05 AM. If you’re interested in participating, please complete the THIS form. Thank you for helping us enrich our students’ learning and future planning!
8th Grade Families
8th grade families—please be on the lookout for promotion-related updates beginning the second week of May so you can prepare for the promotion event and other important end-of-year activities.
We appreciate your partnership and support and are looking forward to a successful month of May.
Warmly,
Jessica Bledsoe, Hermosa Valley Principal
