Valley View Middle School is currently hosting a sweet potato donation drive from Monday, October 8th to Friday, October 12th to help the @SocialFeed project stocking our local food pantries with fresh produce.  There will be a collection bin located near the school entrance before school all week. Canned Sweet Potatoes are also accepted. Thank you Vikings for making life sweeter for local families that are in need.

Hey, Vikings do you have shoes that you no longer wear or want? Well, clear your space! Bring your used shoes to Valley View. We are collecting all sizes and types of shoes for the months of October and November! Just bring in your shoes to the front of the school in the morning, or bring them to Mrs. Graps room A9 during homeroom or after school.

Attention all Force of Nature Vikings! The yearbook has officially reached maximum capacity on all photos EXCEPT you playing your favorite sport/activity/hobby. That means we can no longer take any more baby, vacation, selfie, or pet photos; however, we CAN take any photo of you participating in your favorite sport/activity/ hobby. Thank you to all the Vikings for submitting your photos in early! If you didn't get to submit the photo you wanted to on time, don't worry, we still guarantee to get every Viking in the yearbook 3x!

Vikings, Have you heard?  We are having a Carnival on September 28 from 4:00- 6:45 pm and your whole family is invited.  There will be numerous giant inflatables, a taco, hot dog, and shaved ice food truck as well as other carnival foods, game booths, and face painting. Wristbands cost $10 the day of which gives you access to all the inflatables. However, if you purchase your wristband in the ASB office prior to the event the cost is just $8 through Thursday.  Buy your tickets today before school, after school, or during lunch at the ASB window to save yourself some money. We look forward to seeing you all there!

Dear Valley View Teachers, Principal, and Staff,

The Simi Valley High School Athletics and Activities Office welcomes you to another year of “Elementary and Middle School Night” on October 12th in the Simi Valley High School Stadium. We have invited Valley View and our feeder elementary schools (tickets will be distributed to the schools on October 8th) to this legendary event.

Time

Our Varsity Football team will compete against Agoura High School. Kick off is 7:00 PM. At 6:45 PM we will invite all students wearing their elementary school shirt or local sports team Jersey to our field and be apart of the “Pioneer Spirit Tunnel”. We will have all students enter and exit the field on the West end of the stadium near the snack bar.  

Parking

Please communicate to all parents and family members parking is always at a premium and it may take some time to park and walk to our ticket entrance. To get in on time plan on coming to the end of the JV game (ends around 6:00 PM) or be in line by 6:30 PM to purchase tickets.

Ticket Purchase

Elementary and Middle School students need to come with their ticket to get in free. All other family members over the age of 5 will need to purchase tickets at the gate. General admission is $8, Senior Citizens and children under 12 are $5.  If parents want to avoid buying tickets at the gate (cash only) they can use a credit or debit card to purchase the tickets online on our well-received app “GoFan”. The digital ticket will allow parents/spectators to go straight to the entrance line and enter at a much quicker rate. https://gofan.co/app/school/CA19046

Seating

Our student section, known as the Maroon Mob, will be seated to the far left side of the bleachers.  We will reserve a section of the bleachers for your students and families just to the side of our Maroon Mob.  It will be labeled "Mob, Jr." Before the game begins we will announce for all students to enter the field near the snack bar to be apart of the tunnel as the team enters the field. Last year we had 200 students attend with their families. We would love to see this number increase as it is a great way to celebrate our wonderful community!

In addition, we would love for all of the principals, teachers, and staff members to join us for the game!  All SVUSD employees get in free with their staff ID (additional family members will need to purchase a ticket). In addition to the game, the 12th is our "PINK" game as the theme for the night is Breast Cancer Awareness.  Please encourage your students, families, and staff to dress in pink that night as well!

Other Information

For your reading pleasure, we have attached our Varsity roster (elementary and middle schools included) as well as a post for your classroom. We look forward to another successful evening with your schools and community!

Go Pioneers!  

Mark your calendars to attend Valley View's Fall Carnival on Friday, September 28 from 4:00pm- 6:45pm. It's a family friendly event filled with numerous giant inflatables, carnival snacks in addition to a taco, hot dog, and shaved ice food truck. There will be face painting in addition to carnival games. Wrist bands cost $10 which gives you access into all the inflatables. There will be times identified for each of the inflatables for only “little ones” so your little brother and sisters will have their own opportunity to join the fun. For Valley View Middle School students -  if you purchase your wrist band in the main office prior to the event the cost is $8 from 9/24-9/27. Thank you and see you all there!

Get your CPK card at Valley View. This card will earn a 20% for Valley View Middle School when used at the Town Center location. Valid 9/1/18 to 12/1/18.

Parents we are asking for your assistance: Students should not be texting or calling parents directly from their cell phones at any time during the school day.  Any student that is in need of assistance in contacting their parents should come to the main office and make the call from their cell phones; this is especially true for students that are not feeling well. This will help us prevent the delay in checking a student out of school for parents in the event the student is leaving for the day.

The first semester is quickly coming to an end! That means you should begin reflecting on the assignments you have done in each of your classes. As part of your portfolio presentation, all 6th, 7th, and 8th grade students must include one work sample from each class. These can be digital assignments, or pictures or videos of assignments or performances.  You will include a slide in your presentation for each assignment with a link to the assignment and a reflection. Your English teacher has more information for you.  After the winter break, you will have time in homeroom to work on this Google Slides presentation.  This will be due January 19th and it is a school requirement.
