Principal's Message
Welcome to Valley View Middle School! From the minute you walk in our door, you will know that there is something very special about Valley View! Each day from 7:45-2:40 pm, Valley View is home to 1300 students in grades 6-9 and over 100 staff members. Our excellent, dedicated staff at Valley View works diligently to ensure student success. We use data extensively and employ the Response to Intervention practice to ensure early interventions for students. Meeting the unique academic, social, and emotional needs of the middle level child are integral to the highly successful Valley View Middle School program.
Valley View students may choose from a variety of courses in core subject
areas, vocal and instrumental music, World Languages, a partial French
immersion program, and many enriched course offerings. Social and emotional
needs of students are met in part through teacher teaming, student
support services, and caring, nurturing staff. Our Connecting With
Kids program is a partnership with the community that focuses on developing
assets in youth.
Valley View staff and students are committed to continuing Edina's tradition
of excellence. With the ongoing support and involvement of our parent
and stakeholder communities, we embrace the many opportunities to learn,
teach, and appreciate the unique gifts that we can offer to one another.
Again…welcome to Valley View!
