2026 Kansas Governor's Scholar Award - Lawson Stryker!

On Tuesday the 4th graders enjoyed learning how farming and agriculture is incorporated in many jobs. We learned about different crops especially corn is an important part of our lives. A huge thank you to Bill Johnson from Kansas Corn to come speak to everyone! We enjoyed your presentation and students learned a lot about how a farmer communicates with so many people from the beginning of the crop to the end of the production.

Good luck to the HS track and field athletes competing at Valley Heights!

See you this Friday at our annual Charles Steele Play Day!

UPDATE!! We were so excited last night when our 7th grade girls Medley relay broke the 7th grade BVL record that we missed that it was also a Valley Heights record! Their time of 2:02.55 broke the record set earlier this season by the 8th grade relay team who broke the record set 4 years ago by this year's seniors! Pictured are the new record holder's(top), the recent record holders (middle) and old record holders (bottom). Missing is Ellarie Claycamp. Go Mustangs!!

Happy School Nurse Day, Nurse Tiffany! We appreciate all you do for us!

The 8th grade girls (Hanke, Parker, Claeys, Claycamp) break another VH school record at the BVL track meet today! They ran a 55.58 in the 4X100 relay to take 1st! The old record was set in 1999 by Mann, Lister, Stryker and Millette.

Valley Heights Elementary is proud to announce that Mrs. Meadows’ 4th grade class has been crowned Kansas State Reading Champions! This championship resulted from reading the most minutes per team over four weeks during READBowl IX: The World Championship of Reading, a global reading competition put on by Read With Malcolm, the Youth Literacy Initiative of NFL Super Bowl Champion and children's book author Malcolm Mitchell.
The seventh annual competition was held from January 12 through this past Super Bowl Sunday.

"Winning a state championship is always prestigious," said Mitchell. "However, this year is especially notable, as there were more than one million students, from all 50 states and 19 countries on the reading field for the big game this year. I am so proud of every student who competed and congratulate our state and national champions.” Overall, students from across the globe read for more than 800 million minutes during READBowl IX.
