đ Support a Lifetime of Skills
Mastering vocabulary. Understanding deeper meaning. Feeling confident and seen instead of overwhelmed.
At VCES, we know reading is the foundation for success in every subject. Thatâs why every classroom has a teaching assistant and we employ a full-time reading interventionist. With this one-on-one, personalized support, all students get the focused attention they need, right when they need it.
Your Annual Giving Campaign donation ensures this support is in place all year long, helping every child build the skills theyâll carry throughout their schooling.

Rooted & Rising: Celebrating 15 Years of VCES Giving
For 15 years, Valley Charter Elementary School has been rooted in a commitment to knowing every student, supporting their growth, and helping them thrive. Our strong foundationâexceptional classroom instruction in core subjectsâanchors all that we do. From there, our students rise through experiences that make learning meaningful and memorable.
Thanks to the generosity of the previous 15 years of families, VCES offers so much more than the basics. Field trips let students step into the world and connect lessons to life. Music sparks creativity, while yoga helps them steady their minds and bodies. With teaching assistants in every classroom and a full-time reading intervention teacher, every child receives more individualized support, ensuring they can grow both academically and personally.
What makes these programs possible isnât just funding, itâs the creativity of our staff paired with the generosity of our families. State dollars cover the essentials, but your gifts bring teachersâ ideas to life, sustaining the programs that make VCES unique.
This year, through our 2025â2026 Annual Giving Campaign, weâre inviting our community to raise $75,000 with 100% family participation. Every gift, large or small, keeps our students rooted in strong foundations and rising toward their full potential.
Together, we honor 15 years of VCES giving and invest in the future of our children. Thank you for helping our community remain Rooted & Rising.
