☃️🎄SPIRIT WEEK🎄☃️ Next week is spirit week!

⛄️🌴HOLIDAY SHOP⛄️🌴 It's almost time for our 3rd annual Holiday Shop!! When: Dec. 10th-Dec 12th Where: Ms. Dornik's room! What: This is an opportunity for your kids to do their Christmas shopping and experience the joy of giving in a budget friendly way! We shop all year long for quality gifts we wouldn't mind giving or receiving! Gift prices range from $1-$5. Your student will be sent home with a budget sheet and an envelope for their money. Volunteers will assist the students in buying gifts within their budget. Students will only have 15-20 minutes to shop so please keep the lists of people to buy for short so they don't run out of time! We rely on volunteers for this to be the big success it has been! Sign up here! https://www.evite.com/signup-sheet/5198338742812672/?utm_campaign=send_sharable_link&utm_source=evitelink&utm_medium=sharable_invite We can't wait to see the joy of students buying for those they love most!! ❤️❤️❤️

🎃❤️HALLOWEEN PARADE❤️🎃 Happy Monday after Halloween! We partied hard and are in zombie mode after the weekend! Enjoy some of our favorites from our Halloween parade! #personalizededucation #gilbert #elementaryschool #letsgovipers #vva #viperstrong #valvistaacademyk8 #parentschoolchoice #kindergarten #middleschool #charterschool #halloweenparade #halloween

🍫🍭NOVEMBER 1st🍭🍫 We’ve seen this going around and it explains our feelings about tomorrow so much better than we ever could 😂 We know the day after Halloween is extra hard when you're trying to get your kids up and ready for school. Because dressing a raging pterodactyl is not fun. But PLEASE do NOT bribe the groggy elementary goblins with trick or treat candy and send them to school with two fistfuls of Pixy Stix and a wish. We the teachers would rather you perform a rolling dropoff in front of the school, spitting a cranky kid in pajamas out of the Odyssey than pushing a feral hyperglycemic werewolf into the doors of the school fresh off the king size candy bars scored from *that* house. Put down the Blowpop. Your duty on November 1st is to send them to school with bed head and a buttered biscuit in whatever mood has taken over. We will detox them off of the red dye and artificial flavors and send them back to you at 3:00. We ride at dawn. #personalizededucation #gilbert #elementaryschool #letsgovipers #vva #viperstrong #valvistaacademyk8 #parentschoolchoice #kindergarten #middleschool #charterschool #halloween #pajamaday

👻🎃 HALLOWEEN 🎃👻 Tomorrow is Halloween! Wahoo! We're excited for such a fun day of parties and costumes! Students may wear non-scary, school-appropriate costumes (no face paint, masks, inflatables, weapons/simulated weapons of any kind, or anything that would prevent sitting/moving/normal tasks in class. Athletic-style shoes MUST still be worn.) If your student decides to not wear a costume dress down is fine! #personalizededucation #gilbert #elementaryschool #letsgovipers #vva #viperstrong #valvistaacademyk8 #parentschoolchoice #kindergarten #middleschool #charterschool #halloween
