From all locations and at all mealtimes, children’s meals are “to go.”

STAY INFORMED
Communication is very important to your child’s success at school and we want to keep you informed of what is going on at Valley Elementary School. Please remember communication is a two-way process and you are encouraged to get in touch with your child’s teacher, as needed. We will use electronic communication frequently (Find Out First), so if you do not have access to a computer at home, please be sure to contact your child’s teacher to let them know. The Valley Viking Newsletters will be sent out electronically through Find Out First every two to three weeks.
Below are a few ways to stay informed about Valley and Frederick County Public Schools.
