Viking Families-----IT IS HERE---The Start of the 2023-2024 School Year!!! As all of you are aware the weather forecasted for the next couple days will continue to be excessively hot. All students are permitted to have personal water bottles, however, we do ask that if your child rides the bus that they have a water bottle. Mission Valley will have bottles of water available for student riding the bus after school. Parents/Guardians may also transport their child(ren) to and from school but need to follow the pick-up/drop off guidelines. For morning drop-offs and afternoon pick-ups please feel free to use Bodark Rd, however, we ask that anyone visiting the school during the day enter the school facility at the main entrance as there will be construction vehicles utilizing Bodark Rd. throughout the day. We are excited to get the year kicked off and are looking forward to seeing all the familiar and new faces tomorrow. GO VIKINGS
