Enjoy Your Summer Break

As many of you know, Daisy is headed to State for Track for the third year in a row! This is an incredible accomplishment, not only for Daisy, but for our entire school and community. We are so proud of her hard work, dedication, and determination.

We are hoping to have as many staff members, students, families, and community supporters as possible either at the school or lining the streets of Caledonia when she returns home. Your support and encouragement would mean so much to Daisy and her family as we celebrate this exciting achievement.

At this time, we are still waiting on a more detailed timeline for Saturday’s events. We will share additional information as soon as we know her expected return time and celebration details.

Thank you all for helping us celebrate Daisy and for continuing to show the strong support that makes our school and community so special. Go Daisy!

Congratulations Daisy, Good Luck at State

Dear Valley R-VI Students, Staff, Families, and Community,

Valley R-VI will dismiss at 12:30 P.M. on Friday, May 22, 2026. This will be the final day of the 2025–2026 school year.

Due to the limited number of inclement weather days this year, our usage of AMI days, and the district meeting and exceeding the required attendance hours, we are able to provide an early dismissal for the last day of school.

Thank you for a wonderful school year. We appreciate the support of our students, staff, families, and community, and we wish everyone a safe and enjoyable summer break!
