Family Engagement Night - Parent Survey

Our family engagement night (aka SPIN) will take place on February 25th, 2026.  We are looking to get information from parents and guardians regarding the type of information and/or presenters that you would like to see.  Please take a few minutes to complete this survey.  The survey will be open through January 4th.


We are working on having Gordan Korman present to parents and have a book signing at this event as well.  As we get feedback from students, parents and from Mr. Korman, we will share the agenda for the event.

For all grade levels, if you took any pictures at a school sponsored event and you would like to share the picture with the yearbook you can email us at msyearbook@maryvaleufsd.org.
