October was Annual Fund month at Valley Catholic and it shows! Parent participation numbers have risen from 22% before school started to 45% overall at the end of October! Look below or click HERE to see how your grade is doing. Thanks to your generosity, we had a very successful parent phone-a-thon at the end of October, which raised $10,441 and helped bring participation numbers up. A BIG thank you to our amazing volunteer callers, see below for the list.

If you have renewed your gift or given for the first time to the VCS Annual Fund – thank you! If you have not yet made your tax-deductible gift to the VCS Annual Fund, look for the Annual Fund displays and brochures in your school or click HERE to conveniently make your gift on our secure online giving page. Remember, It All Starts Here and no part of Valley Catholic School is left untouched by Annual Fund support. Truly every gift matters for our students and teachers.

Help us reach 100% participation for VCS Students! Look for parent participation progress by grade at an Annual Fund display near you.
