"H is for Halloween" is the theme for Thursday (10/26) night's ECFE session at Viking Elementary. There will be two sessions at 4:30 and 6:00 p.m. All children ages birth to Preschool are welcome!


Viking Elementary Parents: Great news! The front entrance area will be open for families/students to enter starting tomorrow (10/25/2023). Please utilize the front entrance when coming to school instead of the south door.
If you come after bus time, please use the call button. Sarah will buzz you in. After you enter, please check in with Sarah. She is still in the temporary office just to the right as you enter the hallway. Our main office isn't open quite yet. It should open soon.
Thank you!
