May 2023

In May 2023 we celebrated our amazing Viewlands teachers with Teacher Appreciation Week treats, flowers, and raffle prizes (we have the best teachers!); we also supported students with great snacks for SBA and Map testing; and wrapped up the month with our Spring General Meeting. …stay tuned for more updates!

April 2023

In April 2023 we had a blast at the “Under the Sea” 2023 VEPTSA Spring Auction, hosted at the Phinney Neighborhood Association. We had a great time with everyone and helped raise critical support for our school programs. We also enjoyed a special Earth Day event cleaning up litter at Greenwood Park. …stay tuned for more updates!
