Throughout the last year, Valley-Edinburg School District has committed much time and attention to its long-range facility planning process. We have gathered a significant amount of data regarding our school's space needs, future student enrollment, facility analyses, and stakeholder feedback from our students, staff, and community members. For more information on data gathered, please visit our school's website at https://www.valley-edinburgk12.com/o/vesd/page/ve-school-ics-long-range-facility-planning.
Many important discussions have been held this spring as we consider potential solutions that will help address our facility needs. In an effort to gain more feedback, we ask once again that we engage our communities in another forward-thinking discussion. Join us at the Edinburg School on Thursday, June 20, at 7PM to hear potential long-term facility solutions and provide much appreciated feedback for our district's decision makers. We look forward to seeing you there!

Valley-Edinburg was represented very well by the six students who attended the FCCLA State Leadership Conference in Bismarck this past week! Kristen and Christine were our FCCLA chapter voting delegates and had the opportunity to listen to the speeches and questioning of the candidates, then vote for both state and national officers. Four students had advanced to state STAR competition after the district competition this past February. STAR means Students Taking Action with Recognition and our students consistently develop projects taking important action on issues involving families, careers or communities! Angelina and Raelyn competed in the Chapter Service Project Portfolio category against projects from 5 other ND schools. They were awarded a silver rating for their project titled "A Mural for Members to Remember"! Their focus was to work with a local artist and Edinburg leadership and residents to create a mural that would eventually be painted on the east wall of the Edinburg laundromat building. Emily and Greta competed in the Chapter Service Project Display category against 8 other schools from across the state. They were also awarded a silver rating for their project "Encouraging Kids with Cards". Their goal was to involve the entire school district in creating at least 100 cards to send to the organization Cards for Hospitalized Kids. They far surpassed their goal with over 250 cards and more arriving every day. A special thanks to local Stampin" Up demonstrator Kris, who supported their project by supply donation and involving paper crafters she knows! The students enjoyed the featured guest speaker, music group Attaboy, and observing the business procedures plus opening and closing ceremonies of the FCCLA organization. After the conference they visited one of Bismarck's public art displays - an entire alley of murals! They titled the alley image "FCCLA Fearless" !
