WVS High Schoolers and Parents-
Please join us tomorrow night at 5:30 pm for a FAFSA presentation by Janell Sutter, MCC Financial Aide Advisor. Janell has a wealth of knowledge about applying for FAFSA and ways to make it easy and simple. This is a great presentation for any student and their parents/guardians who may be thinking about pursuing a post-secondary education whether it be a trade school, junior college, or university. Location TBD, but look for signs by the counseling office for more details.
See you all tomorrow!

A big thank you to Paul Oliveira for presenting the history, safety, and archery exposure to Ms. Payne’s 8th grade reading class. Students finished the novel “Brian’s Winter” by Gary Paulsen, which is a story about a teenager who survives the Canadian Wilderness with a hatchet and bow and arrow set. It was great to have this opportunity at Weldon Valley.
Unfortunately Dustin Price had something come up this afternoon so we have had to move fall sports pictures to Monday
Just a reminder that Fall Sports Pictures are tomorrow. Junior High Football players need to bring their blue uniforms for pictures.
Luke Makings finished up his radiation today and got to RING THE BELL of victory! What an amazing accomplishment! We are so proud of how strong and brave our Warriors are! Congratulations to Luke and the whole Making's Family! #FightLikeAKid
Parent/Teacher Conferences are next week, Oct 11th & 13th!

We encourage all parents to take a few minutes to come and visit with their student's teachers! It has such a positive impact on your students education, as well as reminds them we are all a team working together for their success! See you next week!
Hello Warriors-
Tomorrow, Tuesday, October 4th, we will begin NWEA testing for grades 7-12. Please remind your student/students to bring headphones and their fully-charged computers tomorrow.
NWEA testing replaces Scantron and is a wonderful tool to give teachers, students, and parents a better understanding of where students are academically. You will be hearing more about this at Parent/Teacher conferences soon!
The link for testing can be found here: https://5il.co/1iudx
