    Students visited Snipes Farm and Education Center in Morrisville, PA. They enjoyed the farm's orchard, gardens and animals. Snipes Farm envisions a world where everyone has access to healthy food, open space and the experience of farming. Students learned how to utilize the earth's natural resources during the visit.

  • Traveling Mural

    Our art and library classes collaborated on a mural project with schools all over the world. Valley Day School used the book "Radiant Child" and artist Jean-Michel Basquiat for inspiration for our mural. Pieces of the mural was sent to 10 different school, in turn, we received their pieces. The mural "pieced" together hangs proudly in our hall.
