Check here for announcements.

-----------------------------

Based on the announcement made by Governor Baker, Valley West will remain closed for the rest of the school year.  

We feel great sadness and disappointment for our students upon hearing this announcement.  We are especially sympathetic towards our senior class members, who will not be able to finish their final year here at Valley West.  

​

Our last day of school is June 24th.  We encourage all students to stay engaged with your online learning as we work toward the end of the year.  Finish strong!! 

​

We are so appreciative of your ongoing patience and understanding.  Our teachers, clinicians and support staff have  worked very hard to reach your children effectively. We could not be more proud of their efforts.  We are confident that when we are able to return to school, our connections will remain strong with your children. Until then, stay safe, practice social distancing, and take care of one another.

We will continue to communicate any updates through our automated call system and on this announcement page.
