Please don't forget to volunteer for Scary Gym! It is one of the most anticipated events of Fall. My kindergartener is very excited (wonder who told him?!) and has been asking me many questions. Questions such as, "Mommy, will the lights be on? Should I run around?" He is so looking forward to it. My 4^th grader has it all worked out. She is going to scare the "monsters". LOL! Many thanks to Angel McAveney, our VP of Socials, for getting Scary Gym all ready for our children.

   

Scary Gym during the school day on the 26th.  This is a highly anticipated event at VFES & requires many volunteers to make it happen.

Congratulations Shiri I!  

 

Thanks to all the students who submitted beautiful artwork.  The PTO's annual Book Fair opens on Tuesday, Oct. 20 and is open all week and during Scary Gym.

 

Check out the schedule on the PTO website and sign up to volunteer if you are able. Support your PTO, read a book and "find an adventure!"

  

  

Cello Fury will perform for the entire school on the morning of Monday, November 9th! 

 

A cello rock powerhouse featuring three cellists and a drummer, Cello Fury's original music combines the emotive and symphonic sounds of the cello with driving rock beats to create a cinematic, progressive rock sound.  This PTO funded cultural arts assembly will highlight to our children that traditional classical instruments can play many different styles of music!

 

Cello Fury will also perform live for the community at Valley Forge Middle School on Friday November 13th at 7:00 PM. 

 

Tickets for this DELTA sponsored performance are $10 and on sale at www.artsdelta.net or at the door. To inquire about reduced rates and reserved seating available to groups of 10 or more, e-mail [email protected].

 

       

Local Girl Scout Cadette and Valley Forge Middle School student Katie R. is organizing a Locks of Love hair drive scheduled to take place in March 2016.

  

Locks of love is a nonprofit organization that makes custom wigs from real hair for financially disadvantaged children who have a long term medical hair loss.

  

 "Like Locks of Love, I believe that no child should have to feel self-conscience about losing their hair" - Katie R.

  

Katie is running this hair drive for her Girl Scout Silver Award. Now is the time to start growing your hair for participation as the minimum hair donation is 10 inches. For more information about signing up for this wonderful cause please contact [email protected].
