Redwood MS - Viking Voice #29

All CVUSD schools will be closed on Monday, March 16th, 2026. Enjoy your 3 day weekend!

Join in the fun on Tuesday for our Redwood Lucky Duck hunt at lunch. There will be green ducks hidden around campus at lunch. Find a lucky duck and turn it in at the ASB table for a prize! There will also be lucky gold coins all around campus Tuesday. Turn in your coin for a treat in the office throughout the day.

On March 19th we welcome our local 5th grade classes to visit Redwood! The future 6th grade students will be on campus with their teachers for a sneak peek at what it's like to be in middle school. We want to be kind and welcoming to our future 6th graders while they visit campus. Let's show the newest Vikings how kindness is key at Redwood!

We are on a minimum day bell schedule this Friday for the end of Quarter 3. See the schedule below and posted on the Redwood website here.

Reminder that anyone interested in joining ASB for 2026-2027 must submit an application no later than May 1st 2pm. The application link is posted now on the Redwood website here
