We know it takes a village to raise a wolf but itβs great to know that we have the village of SVUSD and the community to support our wolf pack!
Stay strong, Alaura! πΊ



Let's do it again! VM Families we have until November 21 to collect more. Let's see if we can donate over 10,000 pounds of food for those in need!
Thank you for your support!





Earlier this week, our campus was filled with color, love, and strength as we dressed in rainbow colors to support Alaura, a brave student in Mrs. Quinonesβ class who is battling brain cancer. πͺπΊ
Students gathered in the MPR to record a heartfelt message for Alaura, letting her know that we are thinking of her and sending endless encouragement and love. The energy, smiles, and support from our Wolf Pack truly shined bright! β€οΈ
Thank you to everyone who participated and helped make this moment so special.

Our Outdoor Classroom Space has quickly become a favorite spot for both students and teachers, serving as a place where great ideas and great stories take rootβsometimes quite literally. Whether itβs diving into a novel, discussing themes of courage and creativity, or simply soaking up the sunshine while exploring literature, this space has brought new energy and joy to our school community.
Weβre especially grateful to Mrs. Holston, whose vision, dedication, and leadership helped bring this outdoor learning environment to life. Her hard workβalong with the creativity and collaboration of our incredible teachersβhas transformed an idea into an inspiring space where students can learn, connect, and grow.
To the teachers who continue to make the most of this space: thank you for embracing new ways to spark curiosity and for letting our students discover that sometimes the best classroom doesnβt have four walls.
As a school community, weβre proud to celebrate not just our award-winning programs, but the peopleβstudents, staff, and familiesβwho make Village Meadows such a vibrant place to learn. Hereβs to more pages turned, ideas shared, and memories made under the open sky!
