2nd Grade had a wonderful turnout at their Family Fun Night tonight! Families made marshmallow catapults, enjoyed hot chocolate and cookies, discussed what students are learning during Character Education lessons, and took home a deck of cards with fun math games to play!
ALL FOR ADDIE
Valley Heights staff and students, along with our VH Community, would like to help Addie Voelker. Addie is a 2nd grader at Linn Lutheran School. She was recently diagnosed with Synovial Cell Sarcoma. Addie and her family will be needing to travel due to her illness and will be taking on additional medical expenses. We would like to help out her family with this journey. On January 28th, VH Boys and Girls basketball teams will be playing Linn. That evening VH will be doing a 50/50 raffle to help this family. Please come out and support both basketball teams and Addie and her family. If you would like to donate and will not be available that evening to attend, donations can be mailed or dropped off at the high school office. All proceeds will be donated to Addie to help ease the burden of this journey. Donations can be sent to Valley Heights 2274 6th Road Blue Rapids KS 66411
Thanks to these Valley Heights student volunteers! https://www.facebook.com/share/r/15x7WmkxZS/?
