A NOTE FROM THE PRINCIPAL
Valley Creek Parents,
What a successful year we have had at Valley Creek! Thank you for your ongoing support of our teachers and students each and every day. Valley Creek is a unique school with traditions and expectations which run deep. It has been my true honor to be a part of Valley Creek as a teacher, parent, and administrator. In these roles, I have seen the passion of our teachers to give all they have to guide our students to learn and be kind citizens. Thank you for trusting us in educating your children.
As this is my final week as principal at “The Best School in the Land”, I know our school will continue to positively impact our young learners. Thank you for welcoming Dr. King as your new principal. I have the utmost respect and confidence in her leadership.
I will miss you all!
Megan Richards
