March is Music in Our Schools Month, and we’re proud to highlight our amazing student musicians! 🎷🎻🎼
Music education prepares the brain for achievement and helps students develop skills they will carry with them for a lifetime. Music is a cornerstone of the student experience at MVCSD!

Third grade students recently combined coding and creativity by programming Finch robots with micro to draw colorful geometric designs. Students created multiple shapes in different sizes and colors while learning how coding controls movement and direction.
Through trial and error, they built problem-solving skills, persistence, and a deeper understanding of how code translates into real-world actions! 🤖🎨

Each grade level hosts a Partners in Reading event to give families valuable tools to support literacy at home. 📚
Families learn grade-level reading strategies and get an overview of how our Title I program supports early literacy. These sessions are hosted by classroom teachers, our Title I staff and administration, and are a great way to stay connected to your child’s learning journey.
When families and schools work together, everyone benefits!

Sixth grade students recently brought science to life by creating clay models of animal and plant cell organelles! 🔬
By building the different parts of the cells, students better understood how each organelle functions and how they work together in plant and animal cells.

March is National Reading Month—a perfect time to rediscover the magic of a great book! We encourage students of all ages to explore their school or local library and find a story that speaks to them. 📚

Our school breakfast program helps students stay focused, energized, and ready to learn while supporting overall wellbeing. Families are encouraged to take advantage of this convenient option each morning before the school day begins.
We want to take a moment to thank the talented professionals who keep our safe and running smoothly every single day.
