We are off to a great start with our fall PTO fundraiser! At this point it looks like Mrs. New may stay dry while Mr. Coatney gets soaked by water balloons...we'll see if that changes in the week remaining in our sale! We have a few more boxes of chocolate available in the office. All money due by October 30. Thank you for your support!

Reminder!

Tomorrow is the FIRST DAY OF SCHOOL, Vann families! We are so excited to get this school year started. Here are some important reminders as we begin. If you have any questions, call our office and we will be glad to help you!

A team of seasoned experts! They've taught a wide range of grades, earned many degrees and additional credentials, and Vann is better because they are part of it! Meet Mrs. Cardin (intervenionist), Mrs. Brown (interventionist), Ms. Moore (school counselor), and Mrs. McClurkin (instructional facilitator).


See all the important dates and school breaks/holidays by viewing our district calendar. Find it at https://www.conwayschools.org/documents/human-resources/school-calendars/477017.

The Vann Activity SHIP is about to set sail! Meet Mrs. Wolfe (art), Ms. Etter (library media), Mrs. Clark (GT/enrichment), Coach Hedgecock (PE), and Mr. Dooley (music)! These fun and creative teachers have taught in 17 schools throughout their careers, but we are thrilled they now call Vann their home!
