School Council Corner
The VAS Fall/Halloween Dance will be held on:
Thursday, October 24, 2024 from 6:00- 8:00pm in our school gym. Entrance will be on the south side of the school at the Valient Drive doors (Kindergarten Entrance)
Pre-purchase your tickets HERE! And use this RSVP to let us know how many people will be coming with you. Tickets also sold at the door.
All family members of students are welcome. Adults must accompany their kids. Costumes are encouraged (no weapons).
Many volunteers are needed to run the fun event. If you are able to help out, please sign up to VOLUNTEER HERE
Entrance fee is $5 per person (this is the second largest fundraising event for the school after the casino)
There will be music and dancing in the gym, a cake raffle and pizza, snacks and drinks for purchase.
CASH ONLY, so please visit the ATM prior to attending.
Historically, this event is a wonderful night for the kids to get together with friends, build on our VAS community, dress up in costumes if you so desire, and have lots of fun! Added bonus - it's a big fundraiser for the school too!
Thank you for your amazing support!
