☀ A BEAUTIFUL DAY IN THE CV NEIGHBORHOOD: What an incredible way to launch the 2025–2026 school year at today’s Convocation! Our theme — #WonderTogether and #ConnectedNeighbors — came to life through a heartwarming and unforgettable Mister Rogers’ Neighborhood skit performed by our talented District Admin team. ✨

We proudly welcomed our new staff members and were deeply inspired by powerful messages from School Board President Greg Rausch and CVEA President Mario de La Barrera. Eric Blocher, President of The Eagle Foundation, highlighted the Foundation’s ongoing impact and reminded us of the strength and generosity within our community. 🫶

Our keynote speakers, authors Gregg Behr and Ryan Rydzewski, captivated us with insights from their book When You Wonder, You’re Learning, beautifully tying Mister Rogers’ timeless lessons to the importance of curiosity, kindness, and connection in helping students thrive. 📚

Special congratulations to the six outstanding individuals honored with Portrait of an Eagle coins for their unwavering commitment and passion for the CV community. Your dedication continues to inspire us all. 🙌

We're energized and ready for an amazing year filled with connection, inspiration, and soaring success! 🦅

🎻 A BOW-TIFUL COLLABORATION: Mrs. Hoertz’s Technical CAD class at CVHS teamed up with Sophia, an aspiring cellist from Hampden Elementary, to design and 3D-print a custom assistive device so she can continue doing what she loves—playing the cello. Students invited Sophia for multiple fittings, making thoughtful tweaks along the way. At the final fitting, captured by abc27 News, she was able to play independently with her new device! This cross-grade project was a meaningful journey that reflected our Portrait of an Eagle—especially empathy, as students approached the challenge with care, kindness, and teamwork to support Sophia. 🫶 🔗 Check out this heartwarming story and student innovation in action: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RUVTwVP2xLc
