The Place To Create!
Valley Middle School VAPA Meet & Greet at Carlsbad Art Wall
Saturday, January 27th was a beautiful day to create at The Carlsbad Art Wall and Senor Grubby’s. Valley Middle School’s Visual and Performing Arts (VAPA) staff and students filled Carlsbad Village with vibrant art, photo, and musical performances.
Mr. Snyder’s art students lead the creation of a new large-scale mural. Ms. Roon’s students facilitated a hands-on digital photography demo and Mrs. Boer’s band/orchestra students and Ms. Hardy’s choir students provided live performances—all while Mr. Kohnen’s broadcasting students documented for a future VMSTV/CHS episode.
All three of the middle schools in Carlsbad Unified School District have built an outstanding reputation for support of the arts. Each elective offered to 6–8th graders is taught by talented and dedicated teachers who have brought their passions into the classroom to teach the next generation of creative professionals.
Thank you to the staff at Valley Middle School for sharing some wonderful photos from the day!
Upcoming Parent University Event:
Annual LCAP Stakeholder Survey - Please Provide Your Feedback
Please take a moment to complete our annual stakeholder survey (linked here and below). The purpose of the survey is to engage teachers, staff, parents, students, and the community in the process of setting next year's goals and priorities. These goals and priorities become part of our LCAP (Local Control Accountability Plan), a three-year plan that describes our overall vision for students, the results we expect to achieve, and key actions we will take to achieve these results. The three-year plan will also describe how our District's budget is aligned with our goals and priorities.
The survey will close on February 28, and feedback will be shared at a special Board Study Session on March 27.
