Put ideas on paper to share! No more walls! Walls can compartmentalize our campus and our thinking. Students go to multiple locations on campus for singular purposes. The Learning Commons is a ‘one stop learning spot’. It is here that the metaphoric walls are taken down and real world learning and application can occur. Students will use 21st century skills to learn in multiple locations with the tools needed to be successful. In the Learning Commons, students' focus will be the 4 C's.

Students regularly use the Learning Commons and exercise their skills at solving real world problems/issues that are meaningful to them. The local high school, the senior community and local businesses are all contributors and benefactors. The Learning Center has become a 'HUB' for more than just Valley View elementary students.
