Parent/Teacher conferences will be held in the afternoons of Monday, November 16th through Friday, November 20th. All students will be released at 12:30 p.m. during this week. Please pick your child up on time, as there is no yard supervision.

Sprouts we will be open at 12:30 pm, during conference week. Drop-ins are always welcome! However, parents will need to contact Sprouts ahead of time if they plan to us drop-in during care during conference week to ensure that the required paperwork is on file.

Things are getting a little hungry in the art room! Our 3rd graders just finished these Venus flytrap collages. They painted their own paper to cut and build their plants, then used air dry clay for the lips, the bugs, and all the fun little details. Stop by and see them if you can, they're even better up close!

A big thank you to our Happy Valley Parent Club and the whole Happy Valley community for all your fundraising efforts. You're the reason we get to have such an amazing art program!

Just a reminder that there is no school November 23rd through November 27th. Have a wonderful and safe Thanksgiving.

Make sure to check the lost and found before the Thanksgiving break. All clothing left at school on Friday, November 20th will be donated to charity.

We are recommending that HVESD adopt Classroom Math California | Core Mathematics Solution for TK- 6th grade. The staff participated in a pilot that began in March of 2026 and was completed in October of 2026. This curriculum is on the state adopted list and will be officially adopted at the December board meeting. If you are interested in reviewing the materials, please let me know no later than Friday, November 20. You can also check out the website at this link. Please do not hesitate to reach out to Michelle Stewart with any questions.
