Happy Easter from Valentine Elementary School to our students, families, and community,


We will be holding an Easter Party for all the students in their houses in the gym on Thursday, April 17th from 2:30 pm – 3:15 pm.
If you would like to send in treats for the party, please send in 24 treats so that the entire house your student is in will be able to have a treat.
Please consider sending in healthy foods in place of sweet treats.
We will have egg hunts from 1:15 pm - 2:30 pm. Then students will come to the gym to participate in the celebration. Prizes will be awarded for finding the golden eggs in each hunt and for students how found the most eggs in each grade grouping.
Students will be dismissed from the gym.
Happy Easter to all our Valentine Families!
