Dear Parents and Guardians,
As I watch the snowflakes fall outside the school windows, I am reminded of the challenge to remain focused and positive…that this is truly the last stretch of the school year! There is much to be done between now and the end of June – lots of fun and exciting field trips and projects, warmer weather to enjoy time outside and on the land, but also some things that may be more challenging like PATs and transitions for next year. Together we will face what comes and together we will make it through. Spring is a time for renewal and growth and our hope is to cultivate these qualities in all of the Valley Creek School Community.
