So much fun yesterday! 🎉 Big thanks to the Valhalla PTA Color Run for bringing our community together in such a colorful, energetic way. Events like this make a real difference in supporting our PTAs and the programs they provide for our students!

Another unforgettable performance! 🎭✨ Valhalla Middle School's musical: "Bye Bye Birdie!" The cast and crew were so excited to share this incredible show. Very impressed by the talent of our amazing students - this was truly a must-see! 👏

JOIN US in celebrating National Assistant Principal's Week from April 6-10! We are applauding Valhalla High School's Andrew McIntosh and Valhalla Middle School's Sharlene Simpson for everything that they do to lead, help and care for our students, staff members and community!

Happy National School Librarian Day! April 4 is the day that we celebrate Valhalla's warm-hearted librarians! We are so grateful for them, as they educate our students and show them care every day. When you see your school's librarian next week, please be sure to say "thank you!"

Holding clipboards and pencils, Virginia Road School students interviewed Dr. McLeod, our Superintendent of Schools! Curious about his life, they asked him questions about his job, what school was like when he was young and what he enjoys doing in his free time.

Congratulations to the VHS Drama Society on an amazing production of Mamma Mia! 🎭✨ It truly keeps getting better and better every year. Our kids - our student performers - are absolutely incredible and we’re so proud of the talent, energy & heart they bring to the stage! 👏💙
