Welcome to Valley Oak Elementary School, the proud home of the Wildcats! I am excited to welcome you to our wonderful school community and serve as your principal. At Valley Oak, we are dedicated to providing a nurturing and enriching environment for all our students.

With an average enrollment of around 500 students, our school offers a close-knit, community feel. Our parents play a crucial role as partners in education, dedicating countless hours to classroom support and participating in our parent club activities. This strong partnership between home and school is one of our greatest strengths.

Our passionate and dedicated staff are committed to the academic, social, and emotional growth of every student. As a feeder school to Clovis West High School, we are committed to preparing our students for their future educational journeys at Kastner Intermediate and Clovis West High School. We hold high expectations for our students, emphasizing excellence in mind, body, and spirit, inspired by our founding superintendent, the late Dr. Floyd Buchanan.

We encourage all students to engage in co-curricular activities to enhance their elementary school experience and develop a wide range of skills and interests. Your child’s well-being and success are our top priorities, and we are here to support you every step of the way.

Please do not hesitate to reach out to your child’s teacher or me if you have any questions or concerns. I look forward to a wonderful year ahead, filled with growth, learning, and memorable experiences.

Sincerely,

Mrs. Aman Athwal

Principal, Valley Oak Elementary School
