Principal’s Message
Welcome back to returning families and a warm welcome to our new families. All staff are excited to be back and they are hard at work with students helping them to set learning goal that will not only move learning forward but promote a desire for students to be committed learners.
Our student numbers are not quite where we had projected in all of our grades. We are hopeful that we will see some stability in our numbers as parents return from summer vacation and as parents / guardians sort out the finer details connected to transportation.
The partnership that the school shares with parents in education matters and is critical when we plan learning activities and when we strive to personalize and individualize learning for students. We ask parents to play an active role in what occurs at school. Parents are asked to attend school events, support School Council and School Society (with fund raising initiatives) and to commit to supporting our off-site activities and to volunteer with in-school initiatives.
If parents have questions or concerns the first place to discuss these are with classroom teachers. If after this discussion questions and concerns continue, please call the office and your concerns will passed on. We will be very happy to make an appointment where as a team (admin, parent / guardian and teacher) we can further discuss academic, social and emotional issues and together plan a moving forward goal. If the school / home discussions are not fruitful a contact to our Area Office can be provided.
Our first school council / parent society meeting is on September 19, 2017, 6:00pm. After that it will be the second Tuesday each month at 6:00pm in our Learning Commons (LC).
Blogs are on-going, so please revisit at least once a week.
Information is also sent out to parents via School Messenger. In order to receive all messages, parents/guardians will need to subscribe. This can be done by visiting http://www.cbe.ab.ca/Pages/default.aspx and look for the "subscribe" button.
Valley View's Web page is http://schools.cbe.ab.ca/b330/.
Very best wishes to our families for an exciting, rewarding and memorable 2017 – 2018 school year.
Sincerely,
Mrs. Hazel Wallace
