• Senior Maggie Toerber participated in the Thunderbird All-Star Classic this past Sunday. Maggie led the Gold Team in scoring and was named as the Offensive MVP for the game. Maggie played for Team Ebert which won the contest by a comfortable margin. Congratulations Maggie!

  Our Junior High Forensics students performed a play on the evening of April 18th. The students acted out three of Aesop’s Fables and did a fantastic job! Their performances were top notch! It is great to see the next group of acting talent move through the halls of Valley Heights! The students even had a special surprise for the audience at the end of the show – a dance number that was one for the ages! Congratulations to our students and their director – Mrs. Lynette Steele-Coon!
