Cliff Valley School

This week we're jumping for summer in Italy, Australia, China, and Houston, TX!

You can take the Redhawks out of CV, but you can't take CV out of the Redhawks! From Alpharetta, to the pool, or to Japan, we're taking the CV jump with us on summer vacation!

Lori Austin-Cruse just completed 25 years of service at Cliff Valley School! Our most senior faculty member, Lori has been an outstanding teacher, community member, and leader for a quarter of a century, and we are so grateful for all she has contributed over so many years. Please join us in celebrating her!

Last Friday we closed the books on the 60th year of Cliff Valley! Before heading out for summer, we found some extra special moments to connect with friends from throughout the year. And we loved welcoming back a huge crew of alumni who stopped by for the final Friday assembly of the school year. It’s always great to catch up with our Redhawks!

Congrats to our class of 2026!

Thanks to the CV community for coming out to the Spring Arts Showcase last Friday! We had an incredible evening celebrating student artwork, the literary magazine, and our music programs.

We’re packing a lot of fun into the final days of the school year! Here are some highlights from this week’s water day for the 3s and Pre-K and tricycle relays for grades 5-8!

Please join us in celebrating and acknowledging Megan and Margaret who are retiring after 24 and 23 years of service, respectively. They have contributed so much to the Cliff Valley community over the years and will be greatly missed! We’re fortunate to have long-tenured faculty and staff and high teacher retention, and while we’re sad to say goodbye, we are excited about the next phase of their lives!

It was an exciting scooter showdown between the 3rd and 4th graders on Friday afternoon!

Field Day fun for kindergarten, first, and second grade! Thanks to the eighth graders for volunteering to run each station!
