Hello Valley View Families,

We hope you are enjoying the nice weekend! We started the week with crazy weather on Monday with a snow day... and ended the week with melting snow and 50 degrees. Only in Wisconsin! Our students were grateful to be able to get outside and play.

Thank you to all of the families who came out to cheer us on in our annual Hoopalooza event. Thank you to our amazing PTO and all of our volunteers who made this a fun event for our students. A huge shout out to North Middle School as they were able to pivot quickly to host this event!

Our 4th graders will continue to test this upcoming week taking the Social Studies portion of the Wisconsin Forward Exam. 3rd and 5th graders will begin after we return from spring break. Please take some time to discuss with your child(ren) the importance of the testing and to take it seriously. This is a chance for students to really shine and show what they know in relation to the grade level standards.

It's going to be a great week! Go Valiant Knights!

Respectfully,

Jenni Tamblingson

Valley View Elementary Principal
