Video Perspective: QVMS Project

Throughout the last several months, we had the opportunity to meet and talk with dozens of families about our exciting plans to renovate Quaker Valley Middle School. Although we enjoy sharing our vision, the most valuable aspect of our meetings was being able to listen to the questions and concerns of our parents.

We worked hard to address issues as they were presented and we continue to update the QVMS Renovation Blog to keep you informed on our progress.  We decided to take it one step further and create a short video that features many of our middle school teachers and administrators. It is our hope that they provide you with additional information regarding some of the common concerns that we have heard throughout this process. 

When faced with a new situation, children often follow the lead of adults.  Our Quaker Valley staff views the renovation project as a positive initiative – one that will greatly improve the educational environment for middle school children for years to come. 

We hope that you share that enthusiasm.  What is most important is that we all consider what we can do individually and collectively to support our students and teachers in the coming school year as they meet the challenges of change.

Together we will ensure another successful, fun-filled year at QVMS in 2011-12.
