About
Since opening in 2011, Valley Charter Middle School has been dedicated to providing a small, project-based learning environment rooted in diversity and a constructivist approach. With fewer than 300 students, VCMS offers individual attention from trusted staff, helping students navigate the challenges of adolescence while fostering their social, emotional, and academic growth. This personalized approach ensures that every student is known, supported, and celebrated throughout their middle school years.
However, our small size also presents challenges. Public school funding in California is based on daily attendance, and fewer students mean fewer resources. While state funding covers basic needs, essential programs—such as field trips, guest speakers, after-school sports, facility upgrades, and 8th-grade graduation activities—depend on fundraising.
To meet these needs, we plan to raise $40,000 this year, starting with the Viper Fund, October 10th to November 22nd, with a $15,000 school goal. If every student raises $150 or more, we will exceed our goal!
Give today!
Your support ensures that VCMS students continue to have access to enriching experiences, making a lasting impact on their middle school journey.
