Dear Vanderhoof Families-
What a great week! The spelling bee was a huge success, and I’m so proud of all our participants, their courage to take a risk and show their spelling ability truly exemplifies a SOARing roadrunner. Thank you to all of our volunteers and to Mrs. Henrichsen for the live-stream.
**Looking for donations of Valentines day cards- If you are able to donate drop off items in the main office.
