Dear Vanderhoof Families- What an amazing turnout for our annual Math Night! We had 120 passports turned in and a packed gym for the presentation. It was wonderful to see families laughing, learning, and having fun together while engaging in math activities.
A heartfelt thank-you to our dedicated staff for planning, organizing, and participating in this event. Your hard work and creativity made the night meaningful and memorable for our students and families. Thank you also to our PTA for donating the delicious treats we all enjoyed at the end of the evening.
We appreciate your continued support—both at our school events and out in the community. Your generous donations to our food pantry have allowed us to support many of our families.
Wishing you a wonderful Thanksgiving break. Enjoy this time with your family and friends.
Thank you for all the fundraising last year- We were able to purchase all new basketball hoops for our playground. We know this will be wonderful gift for years to come as well. Check them out next time your out on the playground.
