Good evening! This is Kevin Hudson, Principal of Yadkin Valley Regional Career Academy, with information for the week of October 20-24, 2025
I hope everyone is having a wonderful Fall Break.
October 20th is a Shuttle Only Day due to the traditional schools having a teacher workday. Also, students will not have classes at DDCC on Monday.
Staff and Students will participate in the Great American Shakeout Drill (Earthquake) at 10:00 am, on Monday, October 20.
October is Bullying Prevention Month. Students and Staff are encouraged to wear orange on Wednesday, October 22, to celebrate Unity Day.
All sophomores will take the PreACT on Thursday, October 23, 2025.
Looking ahead:
October 27-31, 2025, will be Red Ribbon Week to help keep kids drug-free. This year’s theme is “Life is a puzzle, solve it drug-free.”
WorkKeys testing will take place on October 27 and 28 for those who qualify. Letters were given to those who qualify on Friday, October 10, before fall break.
The PSAT Test will be given on Wednesday, October 29 for the sophomores and juniors who signed up.
I hope everyone has great rest of Fall Break. I look forward to seeing our students and staff on Monday. I encourage all of our students to come back focused and ready to excel during Q2.
Go Valley!
