Schools That Care is accepting prepacked snacks to provide students who work hard and are "hangry" at school. Consider donating healthy snacks, like applesauce, pudding cups, granola bars, nuts, crackers and fruit cups. Thank you!

Red Ribbon Week started in 1985 with the loss of one of the Drug Enforcement Administration Special Agents, Kiki Camarena. In October, our Marshall County Sheriff's Department participates by spreading awareness about the dangers of drug use and promoting a drug free lifestyle. One of the ways is providing t-shirts for the grade school students with a message of promoting drug awareness. Pictured are some of the Blue Rapids 4th graders proudly wearing their shirts. Thank you Sheriff Ackerman and your Deputies for all you do for Marshall County!

Thursday's football game against Thomas More Prep-Marion will be broadcasted live on the Valley Heights YouTube page.
Make sure you tune in if you can't make it out to the game!

NOTICE: There will be a Special Board Meeting on Thursday, October 30th. The meeting will occur at 12:00 p.m. and will be held at the District Office. The purpose of this meeting is to discuss non-elected personnel.
Joking, teasing, poking fun at others can be hurtful too when it is done at the expense of others. #befair #bekind #stopbullying

Consider gifting a helpful and healthy snack or a shelf stable meal replacement item this Halloween instead of candy while many families and students may be feeling the crunch between paychecks with SNAP delayed. Offer it as an option. #beagoodneighbor #kindnessissweet
