  • After two straight years of rain on Project ACES Day, we finally had some nice weather on May 1 for the children to participate in our annual ACES event.  At 2PM, the entire student body went outside to exercise, as children all around the world also participated, including students from all 50 states.  This is the 25th year Valley View has participated in Project ACES under the direction of our Physical Education Teacher, Mr. Saunders.  Kudos to the students and staff of Valley View for participating in this world wide event.  Below is an image of Dr. Kennedy presenting Mr. Saunders a 25th anniversary Project ACES cake.

  • Our students were treated to a wonderful assembly this April in honor of Earth Day entitled Bash the Trash.  The performers talked the students about the importance of recycling and how we can use various items considered as trash to create musical instruments.

  • Captain Troy and Mr. Harry smile for the camera in front of Mrs. Handschuch’s preschoolers’ shamrocks and pots of gold. Captain Troy Oswald of the Patterson Police Department made his annual St. Patrick’s Day visit to Valley View School.  Students and staff gleefully lined the hallways and enjoyed a mini parade led by our Grand Marshall, Mr. Harry.  Captain Troy played a number of Irish tunes and also spoke to our children about the history of the bag pipe and his uniform.  Captain Troy is a former Valley View parent whose son Shane attended Valley View’s preschool.
