Valencia Academy of the Arts Home of the Lightning Bolts - Fully Charged Since 1951

06/15/2026

we had the honor of welcoming back former Valencia students for their Senior Walk. 🎓⚡

As these graduating seniors walked through the halls where their educational journey began, they were greeted with cheers and smiles from our current students. It was a meaningful reminder of how much can be accomplished through hard work, perseverance, and determination.

We are incredibly proud of the Class of 2026 and grateful they took the time to return and inspire the next generation of Lightning Bolts. Their visit served as a powerful reminder that every graduate once sat in these very classrooms, dreaming about the future.

Congratulations, graduates! No matter where life takes you next, you will always be a part of the Valencia family. 💙⚡️

One final adventure before the next chapter begins! 🏕️🌲💙

Our promoting Valencia 5th graders spent the weekend making lasting memories at Camp Woodcraft in Big Bear. From outdoor adventures and team-building activities to campfire fun and new experiences, students had the opportunity to celebrate the end of their elementary school journey together.

As they prepare to take the next step into middle school, we’re proud of the growth, resilience, and friendships they’ve built throughout their time at Valencia. This camping trip was the perfect way to close one chapter and look ahead to the next.

Congratulations, Class of 2026! Once a Lightning Bolt, always a Lightning Bolt. ⚡🎓

🎨✨ Creativity was on full display at our Valencia Evening of the Arts!

From colorful paintings and imaginative creations to thoughtful masterpieces, our talented students amazed us with their artistic expression, hard work, and creativity. Every piece on display reflected the unique talents and voices of our amazing Valencia artists.

A special thank you to **Mrs. Madrid** for her dedication and hard work in organizing and bringing this beautiful event to life. Your passion for the arts helped create a memorable experience for our students, families, and staff. 💙

Our Valencia students celebrated Mental Health Awareness This week! Thank you to Ms. Kianna for organizing such a meaningful and fun-filled day for our students. 🌱

Our kinders enjoyed bubbles, chalk, and time to play, while our 1st–5th grade students participated in exciting field day activities, potted their own succulents, created friendship kindness bracelets, and made colorful pinwheels. 💖🌀🌿

It was a beautiful reminder of the importance of connection, positivity, self-care, and supporting one another. ⚡ ⚡️

A promise is a promise… and today it was finally slime time! 🤩💚
Earlier this school year, students who raised the most money during our Bubble Run Fundraiser earned the chance to slime Dr. Lara and today they finally got to make it happen! 🎉
As an extra surprise, Ms. Santistevan and Ms. Sarabia also got the honor of pouring buckets of slime on Dr. Lara after having our top fundraising classes! 👏⚡️
Thank you again to all of our students and families for supporting this year’s Bubble Run fundraiser! 💙
