Vieja Valley Mission Statement
We provide a learning-oriented, safe environment for children of all ages. In doing so, our mission is to develop in children the knowledge, skills and attitudes to instill a lifelong love of learning and to become productive and contributing individuals in a changing society.
What's New at VV?
- Have you signed up? It's almost time for STUDENT LED CONFERENCES at Vieja Valley! This is the time when your child gets to "shine" and be the star of their family. Make sure to sign up with your teacher for this special moment for your child to share what they have learned and show the progress they have made in school so far.
- Many came on Sunday, March 15th to help "BEAUTIFY" our school! From 9am-12pm parents and students were working to spruce up our campus. Their help is now appreciated by ALL.
- Puzzlepalooza was a huge success! Thanks to those that organized our night of pizza and math games for families. We are so lucky to have such a FUN PTA that makes these events happen (Ms. Aragon especially!).

Measure J Bond
The Hope Elementary School District Planning and Construction Management oversees new construction and modernization of all district facilities. The department is responsible for the district’s short and long-term facility needs, including enrollment and staffing projections to identify facility needs.
Through careful planning and support from the community, Hope Elementary School District has prepared well to accommodate the current needs of our students, staff, and community. In March 2020, the Hope School District community voters passed Measure J. This $47.4 million bond will provide funding for the modernization of our facilities, including new construction at Hope Elementary School, Monte Vista Elementary School, and Vieja Valley Elementary School.
The first series of $12 million was sold in May 2020, received in June 2020, and deposited in Fund 22 (Bonds). The district must spend 85% of those proceeds within three years. Staff predicts all $47.4 million proceeds will be spent by 2025. Closing out the bond program requirements by June 2026.
