Here is the schedule for JH games vs Luckey today:


It is getting that time again to start thinking about Driver's Ed for our young Valley Heights students. That being said, if you have a son or daughter who will be 14 by March 1st, and who would be interested in participating in the VH Driver's Ed program for this year, please email Lori at vhhs@valleyheights.org and let her know your student's name and birthdate and that you are interested in participating. Online classes will start around Spring break and our driving times will be during the summer(usually after Memorial Day thru the month of June). More information will follow, but we would like to get an idea of how many students we may have in the program this year. Again, please send an email to vhhs@valleyheights.org if you are interested. Thank you for your time.

The JH games vs Washington County are canceled today and will not be rescheduled.

SET HIGH STANDARDS! Research shows that setting high goals produces high levels of effort and performance! YOU CAN DO IT!
