As presented at the May 28, 2026 Incoming 5th Grade Parent Orientation
- Counseling
As we continue preparing for an exciting school year at Valley View, I wanted to send a friendly reminder
regarding several upcoming transition events for our incoming 5th-grade students and families, as well as
share some important program updates for next year.
As part of our fifth grade health curriculum, students will participate in either the “Tea Talk” led by our school nurse, Mrs. Zimmer, or the “Donuts for Dudes” led by Coach Leslie on Thursday, April 30th at 2:15 PM.

As a friendly reminder, we ask for your continued partnership in reinforcing our school expectations regarding cell phones and other electronic communication devices, including smartwatches.
During the school day, all cell phones and electronic communication devices must be powered off and kept away in lockers or bags. These devices should not be visible or used during instructional time, transitions, or lunch.
