Hello Pleasant Valley Families,
We are thrilled to see our "Brick and Mortar" learners in person next week!
There is a new Attendance Procedure for students on their "Off Cohort" Days. Please read below carefully:
- Students in the White Cohort must log in to their Google Classroom Meet every Tuesday and Wednesday from 9:15-9:35 am for attendance and school morning announcements.
- Students in the Green Cohort must log in to their Google Classroom Meet every Thursday and Friday from 9:15-9:35 am for attendance and school morning announcements.
If your child can not attend in-person learning or log in during 9:15-9:35, please call the office @ 440-885-2380.
Please remember that students can not enter the building until 9:15 am, and dismissal is at 3:30 pm. We will not be serving breakfast in school.

Whether in Distance Learning or Hybrid Learning, always refer to the Monday Communication from your child's teacher. This has been either in Google Classroom or emailed to you or both. This will help your child know what the assignments and Google Meets are for the week.
Picture Day is coming on January 27th (Green Cohort) and January 28th (White Cohort), please save the date. We are working out a Picture Day Schedule for PVLA and will send that out to PVLA families next week!
Please call (440) 885-2380 from 8:00 am to 4:00 pm as our office staff will assist if you have any questions. Thank you for your ongoing support and partnership!
Very Sincerely,
Stephanie Boka, Principal
