What's New in Hoosic ValleyReady….Set….Go Join Team Blue Crew! Hear ye, hear ye…all HV 7 – 12th grade students come join the Valley Blue Crew and be part of this year’s Relay For Life! We need YOU to make our school team an Olympic sized team and do some serious walking on June 8th and June 9th at Greenwich High School. Why? Because…each year, more than 3.5 million people in 5,000 communities throughout the United States, along with communities in 20 other countries, gather to take part in this global phenomenon and raise much-needed funds and awareness to save lives from cancer. Our goal is to raise $5,000.00! Why? Because…Relay For Life is a life-changing event you will never forget participating in. It gives everyone in communities across the globe a chance to celebrate the lives of people who have battled cancer, remember loved ones lost, and fight back against the disease by raising funds and awareness. Why? Because the life you save may one day be your own. Why? Because…with your support, we are creating a world where cancer can't claim another year of anyone's life. You are helping create a world with less cancer and more birthdays! So please join the ‘HV Blue Crew’ today…see Mr. Myott or follow or use the online registration link @ the BlueCrew Webpage

Spring Concert - Jr.-Sr. Chorus
The Jr. Sr. High Chorus once again put on a beautiful concert. The variety and talent of our students never ceases to amaze. HV Presents 17th Annual Hoosic Valley will host the seventeenth annual “Bucky’ Thompson Science Research Symposium. The event will be held on Wednesday, May 23rd at 7pm at the Hoosic Valley High School LGIA. The Keynote speaker for the evening will be alumni Emilee Bonnier of Albany College of Pharmacy. The graduating student speakers are Patrick Murray, Rachel Beamish, Kris Briggs and Kim Salvati. If you're not familiar with the Science Symposium, it's definitely worth checking out. Students start their research sophomore year with the goal of completing as a senior. Working with Mr. Pagano, they select a topic they are interested in, devise a hypothesis, experiments to prove the theory, and summarize their research. Quite impressive at the High School level. The symposium gives seniors the opportunity to formally present their research and answer questions. All the research students will have posters available in the cafeteria that shows their progress to date and will be on hand to give further information if needed. Prom Photos

Summer Application and Information Food Service Changes for the 2012-2013 School Year It is with regret that Hoosic Valley will no longer be contracting with Prestige Food Service for the upcoming school year. Prestige announced recently that the company will be shutting down their school food service division. Hoosic Valley is currently looking into various food service options and will be evaluating programs to make sure the district has an outstanding food service program in the fall. The process of transitioning programs will take place during the summer and updates will be provided on the district website Seal a Smile Program Coming to Hoosic Valley in the Fall of 2012
Why is it being offered at Hoosic Valley? Hoosic Valley, like many rural school districts, has a student population that has a high incidence of tooth decay. Hoosic Valley is bringing this program to the district to benefit the oral health of the students. Many capital area schools are participating in this free program including Troy City School District, Berlin Central School District, Watervliet School District, Hoosic Falls Central School District and many more. This program will begin next fall. Who pays for this service? The service is totally free! If a student is participating that has insurance, insurance will be billed. If a student has no insurance, they will receive this service free of charge. Patients and families will never be billed. When and how will students get these services? Screening and services will happen during school hours. Additional Information- Visit the Booster Clubs ShutterFly site for more sports photos: |
