This week, our JCC Ceramics and Advanced Ceramics classes visited Jamestown Community College for an enriching experience. They started with a lively tour of the art facilities, engaging with current art students about their experiences.
After exploring the campus, they enjoyed lunch while connecting with non-art students, who shared their insights on campus life. The students then enjoyed a visit to the Weeks Gallery, where they viewed the Student Art Show. The day concluded with a visit to the ceramics studio, where they met Professor Elliott Hong. Students were enthralled by a live throwing demonstration, gaining insight into both the craft and the professor's inspiring background in Vietnam. Each moment was filled with learning and inspiration.
This week is teacher appreciation week so the middle school PTO put together a cart with coffee and morning treats for all the teachers. Middle schoolers went around the school delivering all morning. Thank you to our amazing teachers here at CVCS!!! #ValleyProud #StudentInfluencerCatie

We have power - the elementary school will start on time! Thanks to the amazing crews for working diligently through the night to restore power at SES!
Attention Cougar community!!! We just got word that there’s an electrical issue at the elementary school where there’s no power and crews have been called out, from Buffalo, to work on restoring it.
At this point, we do not know if the power will be restored by 5AM. If we need to delay or cancel the **elementary school only**, we will send out an all call and also post updates here. If we need to delay SES ONLY we will update you by 6AM.
This week, May 4-9, is Teacher Appreciation Week. Thank you to all teachers and everything you do!

🌿 May is Mental Health Awareness Month 🌿
This month is dedicated to raising awareness about mental health and wellness, reducing stigma, and showing support for the millions of people affected by mental illness. It's a time to educate, advocate for better policies, and open up the conversation around mental health—because mental health is just as important as physical health.
Throughout May, we'll be sharing helpful resources, information, stories, and ways you can get involved. Let’s work together to create a more compassionate, informed, and supportive community. 💚#MentalHealthAwarenessMonth #EndTheStigma #YouAreNotAlone
