Dear Valor Parents,
It has been delightful to walk the halls and see everyone's creative dress-up ideas for Spirit week. Whether it was Mahjong tiles, Clue characters, or Charlotte Mason, Valor families go all out. My favorite costumes were when students got out of their cars on Monday and said, "Guess who I'm dressed up as? I'm my mom!" or "I'm my dad!"
Children are such a gift from the Lord, and they look up to their parents. We aren't perfect, and neither are our kids, but God placed us together to sharpen and refine, and most of all communicate His unconditional love to one another. I don't know about you, but I'm thankful for families, and I'm very thankful to be a part of such a community that values the unique impact of family culture like Valor does.
As always, I'd love to hear from you if you have any suggestions or concerns about your child's discipleship or education.
With joy,
Brooke Ramsey
Head of Grammar School
Valor Preparatory Academy
We already have 99 registered students! By participating in Kids Heart Challenge, our students will learn how to keep their hearts, bodies and brains healthy while helping kids with special hearts live longer, healthier lives.
It's a fun and meaningful way for our students to learn lifelong habits of health and helping others,
The class that has the most students sign up for Finn's Mission (as a % of their total class) will win a free day in PE and any students that complete Finn's Mission will get to silly string Coach Franklin and Coach Perez!
Thank you to Betsy and David Karnes of Legacy Garden Supply for donating soil to top off our playground flower boxes!
Also, another big shout out to Eli Brock for sowing zinnia seeds for us to have starts ready in a few weeks!
If you love to garden and want to help us make these boxes beautiful, please reach out to your classroom teacher to coordinate the effort!
Parents of 4th and 5th graders should have received an email this week with all of the details about this wonderful event. If you did not receive that email or if you have any questions, please email gsadmin@valorprep.com
Grammar School was delighted last week to have several Shakespeare performances on campus. Enjoy these photos from some of the action!
