Dear Slate Valley Community,
Thank you for your participation in our recent ThoughtExchange on school budget priorities. We had over 400 participants with 125 thoughts shared and over 5,000 ratings for those thoughts. On Monday night, the top thoughts were shared with the school board. They were as follows: Continuation of free breakfast and lunch in our schools. Enrichment opportunities for students. Further addressing student behaviors throughout the system. Addition of a wood and metal shop 7-12. Staff retention. The board and administration plan on taking all of this feedback into consideration as we build our FY24 budget this fall. - Brooke Olsen-Farrell
Next week is Spirit Week! It's also Red Ribbon Week! Here's the outline for the week:

Our students were the creative force behind this week. What fun it will be!

At no fault to anyone, the tickets that were sold were accidentally recycled. If you were a person that purchased a ticket, or tickets, or know of anyone that did, PLEASE email Kim Alexander (kalexander@svuvt.org) with your name and phone number and we will reprint tickets.
Tickets were pulled through Friday, October 14th. We will give everyone a chance to respond and get their name back in by Nov 1st and then we will
PULL 17 DAYS WORTH OF TICKETS AND NOTIFY WINNERS.
Thank you all for your UNDERSTANDING of this dilemma.
Last week Mrs. Lanfear's and Ms. Redding's third grade classes continued our CES tradition of going on the Blue Cat field trip. Students visited the Higley House, Cobbler Shop, and observed the town's beautiful architecture as they journeyed to the Castleton River, where they had hoped to catch a glimpse of the infamous cat himself.
