Dear Village Families:


Rincon Valley Distance Learning Decision

As you likely heard, the Rincon Valley Union School District Board of Education has decided to extend distance learning through the end of the 2020 calendar year. RVUSD is actively putting on place plans for potentially reopening schools, however, this will not happen until January at the earliest.



Live PE on Wednesdays!

Physical education is very important and we want to work with you all to get your bodies moving and to have some fun together! Feel free to have parents, siblings and anyone in your home join these sessions. Our goal is to get as many students to participate as possible. We will have little fitness competitions with prize incentives! We want to motivate you all to stay physically active during a time where we spend a lot of our day sitting. Spread the word to all of your friends and let's get moving!

Looking to connect with other Village families?


Click here to join the new Village Parents Club Slack Group

The Slack group is free, private, and easy to access from a phone or computer. It works a lot like a closed Facebook group, but it doesn't require a Facebook account and the conversations are really easy to search and organize.

In the Slack group you can connect with parents who have kids in the same grade, share ideas and support with other Village families, and feel less alone in this weird and wild time we are all parenting through.

Feel free to contact parentsclub@villageparents.org if you have questions or need help getting setup on Slack.
