All-School Events

Between Back-to-School Night, the spring Open House and our mid-year All-School Event, our parents have a chance to fully immerse themselves in our curriculum and see first-hand what the students are learning every day.
Gala

We are thrilled to announce that this year's gala will be a joint event with the VBS ECC! This festive event will honor community leaders, celebrate our schools, and raise critically important funds that advance our mission. Stay tuned for additional donation and sponsorship opportunities, and mark your calendars for February 10, 2024.
Generations' Day

Our grandparents play a key role in supporting the education of their grandchildren at VBSDS. If your parents are interested in getting involved as school leaders, they are warmly invited to join our Generations’ Circle. Each December, the school hosts Generations’ Day - a special day for grandparents and special guests to join us on campus. This year, Generations’ Day will take place on Friday, December 22, 2023. We look forward to hosting an appreciation event in the spring for grandparents giving at a minimum of $1,200 to our Annual Fund.
Sababa Fest

Families from our Day School and the ECC gathered for a community-wide family fun day in support of our schools. We celebrated our Community Impact Award recipients and enjoyed exciting activities for all ages!
Grade-Level Programs

Each grade has programming specific to their curriculum which includes field trips, performances, in-depth project-based learning and special events that bring their learnings to life. Parents are welcome to attend the grade-level performances and programs.
Parent Organization Events

Our Parent Organization boasts myriad volunteer opportunities for parents - both working and stay-at-home - along with a wide array of community events like Back-to-School Family Shabbat, Family Bingo, Parents' Night Out and an All Schools Challah Bake. Each grade level also organizes social events throughout the year, creating opportunities to engage and build community.
VBS Synagogue Programs

As members of the Valley Beth Shalom community, Day School families have the opportunity to attend dynamic VBS programs, geared to every generation, from learning to social action to holiday celebrations to youth department events. Visit the VBS synagogue website for more information.
