Core Values

Our core values promote a well-rounded approach, emphasizing both personal and interpersonal development, which are critical at the elementary level.

Respect

We foster a culture of respect where every child, teacher, and family member feels valued. Respect for oneself, others, and the environment is essential to creating a welcoming and supportive community for all.

Curiosity

We believe that curiosity is the foundation of learning. By encouraging students to ask questions, explore new ideas, and embrace challenges, we help them develop a love for discovery that will last a lifetime.

Kindness

Kindness is at the heart of our school community. We strive to teach empathy, compassion, and generosity, helping students understand the importance of treating others with care and building positive relationships.

Principal’s Message

Dear Vannoy Elementary Parents and Caregivers,

On behalf of the entire Vannoy Elementary staff and faculty, welcome to a brand new school year! We are thrilled to begin another exciting journey of learning, growth, and community together. Whether you’re a returning family or joining us for the first time, we look forward to working with you to support your child’s academic and personal development.

At Vannoy, we believe that a successful education is built on strong partnerships between home and school. Our mission is to create a safe, supportive, and inclusive environment where every child feels valued and encouraged to become a curious, independent, and thoughtful learner. While we are committed to providing a strong academic foundation, we are equally dedicated to helping students develop the social and emotional skills they need to make thoughtful choices and grow into kind, responsible individuals.

We invite and encourage you to be an active part of the Vannoy community. Your involvement—whether through volunteering, attending school events, or simply staying engaged in your child’s day-to-day experiences—makes a meaningful difference and strengthens our shared commitment to their success.

The Vannoy Elementary School Handbook is designed to help you better understand the policies and procedures that guide our school. It offers important information about school expectations, safety protocols, and district guidelines. We encourage you to read through it carefully and discuss the key points with your child, especially the importance of making respectful choices and staying safe at school.

Please remember, this handbook is just one part of our communication with families. If you ever have questions, concerns, or simply want to check in, we welcome you to reach out—whether by phone, email, a note, or in person. Our doors are always open, and we value the opportunity to connect with you.

We are truly looking forward to a wonderful year filled with discovery, collaboration, and joy. Thank you for being an essential part of what makes Vannoy such a special place to learn and grow.

Warmly,
Soraya Villasenor
Principal, Vannoy Elementary School
