Our annual school spelling was a huge success! Congratulations to all spellers on a job well done. James will represent VVL at the district spelling bee! 🐝

VVL had 2 very successful events!

A BIG thank you to our VVL families for their kindness and generosity! We filled 8 big boxes of food. Matthew’s Crossing is going to have food for days!

We also celebrated our veterans with our annual assembly! It was so special and humbling to say thank you to former and current service members!

Our annual fishing derby was a swimming success! 🎣

The halls were bustling with future doctors, vets, teachers, designers, and more. Check out all of the students who dressed in their future careers.

We’ve also been collecting cans and goods for Matthew’s Crossing. Two of our very own students collected food and money from family, friends, and neighbors and then went shopping for the cans. What generosity! Reminder, tomorrow is the last day to donate for the food drive.

Happy Halloween from VVL! Our campus was buzzing with fun costumes and parties. Check it out

-6th grade mixed their kids and did academic community and relationship building.

-preschool-6 wore costumes and walked in a parade!

We are beyond proud of our Viking students, staff, and community for being recognized by the Arizona Department of Education as an A school once again. Congratulations, your hard work has paid off!
