Harvest Festival
Parent Teacher Conference
Parent-Teacher Conferences are on October 31 and November 1. There is No School during these two days so that parents can schedule a Parent-Teacher Conference with the teacher. Your teacher will be sending home a sign up sheet soon.
PSAT
On Wednesday, 10/23, TVA high school Juniors will be taking the PSAT/NMSQT (NMSQT stands for National Merit Scholarship Qualifying Test). Colleges use the SAT scores (taken during the senior year) for their scholarships, but the PSAT offers students both feedback in preparation for the SAT and also the opportunity to qualify for a National Merit Scholarship.
We are excited for this new opportunity at TVA now that we have an accredited high school program.

The Tualatin Valley Pathfinder Club enrollment is open until October 16. The club is open to students in grades 5 through high school. Check out more information about the pathfinder club here.
TVA Gear Sale
We have TVA gear available at the front office. Some of the shirts and sweatshirts are from a few years ago, so we have limited sizes available for new. We hope to have some new gear available in the future.

TVA T-shirt Tuesdays
During the 2024-2025 school year, we are working toward a unified school spirit. To do this, every Tuesday, we are requesting that students wear a TVA shirt or a T-shirt with TVA colors (navy blue, light blue, or white).
The classes that participate the most will win a prize each quarter. This effort will help us continue to build community as we move toward furthering our conversations regarding uniforms. A new parent survey has been sent to gauge interest in this topic and will include a preview of uniform options to be voted on. Please find the survey code at the bottom of this newsletter.
If your child is sick…
Please visit our Health & Safety page on our website for our health protocols. Please do not send your child to school if he/she is sick. Help us keep our students and staff safe from illnesses by keeping your child home when sick. Thank you!
