Our next #ValleyProud new hire spotlight is Steven Bajdo! Steven is one of our new Food Service Helpers who has grown so much as an employee of The Valley! We're proud to have him a part of the Cougar family! Thank you for all you do, for our kids!

The Key Club worked all week with Mrs. Green's Cooking and Foods classes to make Christmas cookies for the Samaritan House's weekend fundraiser. The students researched recipes and made shopping lists, then they spent a couple days making the dough and decorating and frosting the cookies. 100 cookies were baked and put into little holiday baggies. All proceeds from the cookies will go to their roof fund. A roof is vital to continuing their community outreach. Samaritan House board member and CVCS alumni, Tristian Pierce, came to pick up the cookies. Tristian was an active member and officer of our school's Key Club all four years while he was a cougar. #ValleyProud!

Cassadaga Valley's FFA kids participated in the Sherman Christmas Lighted Tractor Parade over the weekend. They worked all week during class to get the truck set up. The students are looking forward to next year's parade and are working on being BIGGER and BETTER! #ValleyProud









We're #grateful for our next new hire spotlight, Kimberly Mosier! Kim is one of our new middle/high school Teacher Aides! She's been a stay at home mom who volunteered at her kids' sporting events, coached midget football cheerleading and helped her dad coach since she was 16. Being involved in The Valley allowed her to get to know a lot of the kids which led to her applying for a job here. She truly loves the kids in our community and wanted a job where she could help shape children's minds to become the best they can be!
