What's Happening at HVES

May 23rd 2025 - Our Hidden Valley run club took a drive down the Alaska highway to give it their all and represent our community at the Haines Junction, Pine Ridge run! Way to go team! Special thanks to Mr. Hill and Mr. Mitchell for their support!

Ms. Belanger's 6/7 class conquer Sam McGee!

Amazing adventures, team building, leadership and a whole lot of fun!  The class spent 3 days in/around Carcross; camping, hiking and enjoying the Yukon spring.  A big thank you to Ms. Belanger, Ms. Laurence and all of the parent volunteers that helped to make this awesome experience happen for our amazing 6/7's!

School bus registration is open now for the 2025-26 school year!
Students must be registered every year for the school bus.  School bus registration will be conducted online this year, and paper forms will no longer be accepted. Families without access to a computer may receive assistance from office staff at their child’s school or from the Department of Education.  Families are encouraged to register their student by Tuesday, July 1, 2025 to help us plan effective school bus routes for next school year.
High school students can choose to register in mid-June for a free city bus pass instead of registering for the school bus. They cannot register for both.
