leaves school for the day. If a student
comes to school late and has missed a
test, the student is required to take
the test before leaving school for the

Seniors at
Pillow Academy sponsored our Annual blood drive on Tuesday, Jan. 26th &
Wednesday, Jan. 27th. Working with Mississippi Blood Services, almost 80
units of blood were donated for this very worthy cause. The
seniors would like to thank all students, patrons, and faculty for
helping make this such a successful project.
February
5, 2010 Valley is
upgrading the Mealpay Plus - Online Prepayment System with an integrated
biometrics scanner at the point of sale. This new system allows for the
students to access payment with a touch of the scanner. The
benefits include:
Eliminates manual entry of student pin number
Provides an audit trail of meals purchased
Increases speed of lunch service
Adds to the efficiency of staff
Next week, Valley Foods will begin enrolling our students in grades
K4-12. Each child will put his or her finger on a reader that takes a
series of vector analysis measurements that are stored. This is not
taking a fingerprint or storing a fingerprint, but the measurements are
stored as a data file. Now students will no longer have to remember a
number.
