School of Excellence Survey

PTA needs your help! As part of the National PTA School of Excellence program, National PTA requests feedback from families, administrators, and teachers at two points in the school year. Your feedback will help us improve our family-school partnership and achieve excellence. The anonymous survey ( https://forms.gle/ 4BeUHGma1ENyGe2A7) will take 5-10 minutes to complete. The deadline to complete the survey is Friday, June 11 at 11:59 pm. VPE PTA hopes you're having a great summer!

Immunization Records 

Vaccinations are an important part of keeping our students healthy and ready to learn. If you have not had a chance to get your child's immunization record updated at school, please find time as soon as possible to obtain certificates for your student from your healthcare provider. Students not in compliance may be excluded from attendance, especially in the event of widespread illness. If you are unsure if your student's records are up-to-date, please check with our school nurse Deddie VanBussum or the front office staff.
