CVA principals report rising K–8 enrollment; district outlines VELC construction timeline
Summary
CVA principals told the board CVA is on track to record its highest K–8 enrollment on first count day and reported two years of improved retention; the superintendent also presented a timeline and vision for the VELC building.
CVA Principals Eldon Palmer and Katie Huffman told the Valley School District Board on Aug. 21 that the CVA program is on track to have the highest number of enrolled K–8 students on the first count day since operating without K–8 partner districts and reported two consecutive years of improved retention.
"CVA is on track to have the highest number of enrolled K-8 students on the first count day since operating with no K-8 partner districts," the principals reported to the board during their annual review. They attributed the gains to improved retention and program stability, as recorded in the meeting minutes.
Separately, Superintendent Dr. Mandi Rehn presented a breakdown of the VELC construction timeline and the district's vision for the facility. The timeline was presented as informational; no formal action or funding vote was recorded at the meeting.
The board received the CVA annual review and the construction timeline as part of the discussion agenda. Facilities Supervisor Jim Blair also provided an update on ongoing district projects during the meeting. The minutes do not list specific enrollment counts, funding amounts for VELC construction, or target completion dates; those details were not specified in the meeting record and would require follow-up with the superintendent’s office for specifics.
