New Pump Station going in!


Middle School students, who participate in Project Build with Mr. Stanton, delivered two special made tables this week. They proudly made them from scratch... The rough lumber came from Book's Farm, they went to The Mint in Rutland and used their machines to plane the boards, and completed construction in the woodworking shed at FHUMHS. What a great accomplishment! Thank you Slaters!




This week we celebrate both school counselors and our school-based clinicians for all they do. Slate Valley greatly appreciates their dedication, compassion, and hard work.
Thank you!
