Mrs. Sather and her Peer to Peer class were featured on KOVC this morning, live from Alley Beans!
As part of Alley Beans’ promotion today, Mrs. Sather was invited to share a little about the Peer to Peer program—and explain why she might be considered a bit of a “regular” at the coffee shop.
A BIG thank you to the Hubers and everyone at Alley Beans for the invitation and for always being such proud supporters of VCHS! We love seeing our students, school, and community come together! 💙

Public Use of Hanna Field
We've also included the rules and guidelines for the public use of Hanna Field. This is an awesome shared school and community resource, and we want to make sure it can continue to be available for students, activities, and public uses. Please know that public access is permitted when the facility is open and not reserved for school programs. The gate behind the bleachers in the Hanna Field parking lot will remain open for public access until the snow is the on the ground. If you have any questions about public use at Hanna Field, please contact our district offices.
In the News
Today Valley News Live was in Valley City doing a story on the construction of the new school. We are always proud to represent Valley City in sharing 'good news' information with the media about the great things that are happening in this wonderful community.
