Today our students participated in a school wide spelling bee. Students have been preparing for this day and did a fantastic job. It takes a lot of courage to stand in front of a large crowd and spell words. They are all winners and we are super proud of each and every student!

The new elementary is progressing nicely. Most sidewalk curbs have been poured. The drywall is almost complete inside, and mud and taping of the walls begin. Most windows have been installed, and we continue to make progress here. All parking lots and 7th Street being repaved should be complete in the next several weeks. Check out our photos and the descriptions of each of our progress. We are still ahead of schedule!

Good Afternoon Parents! Venice CUSD #3 wanted to inform you that no after-school program will be offered to families for the 2024-2025 school year due to the district’s ability to sufficiently staff the program for the upcoming year. We understand this news may be disappointing and sincerely apologize for any inconvenience.. If you want to seek after-school care for your children at your own expense, I wanted to provide you with some resources and options (https://5il.co/2qdcx) to check out and consider for the upcoming school year. Feel free to contact us with any questions or if you need further assistance. Enjoy the rest of your summer!

The new elementary school is coming along nicely! I am happy to report we are ahead of schedule. Attached are two pictures. In picture one, this is the Pre-Kindergarten through Grade 4 wing. This will also serve as the building's storm shelter for the school in case of bad weather. In picture two, the steel frame is installed on the building's Grade 5-8 wing. The tall pieces of steel frame are the start of the gymnasium. More to come soon!
