Principal’s Message
Dear Valley Oak Families,
We are almost there! We have SO MANY activities these next two weeks that we want all our students to be able to participate in. Our teachers plan many fun things for our students to enjoy together as classmates, so long as they can behave themselves. We know it can be hard when the routine is different, however we have high expectations that we need to have our students continue to uphold until the very last day of school. Please help us by reiterating this at home.
Mr. Swain and I enjoyed working from the roof on Wednesday. We enjoyed a little breeze and had an enjoyable time overseeing lunch duty from above. � It was time for the Hobby Horse races after lunch and boy did we have some stiff competition. These teachers were not going to let their colleagues beat them. These are the fun things that our students will remember forever and build a fun community here at Valley Oak.

Enjoy your long weekend!
