Hello,
The Sharing Place is hosting a Community Night Open House on Wednesday, April 30th from 6pm to 8pm, and I wanted to personally invite you to attend. This a great opportunity to learn more about why children’s grief support is so important, how our program works, the impact we have on grieving children and families, and how you can support our mission. I would love to see you there!
Thank you!

Hello Apple Valley families,
Online registration for the 2025-26 school year opens Monday, April 7 for all returning and new students including Kindergarteners. As a reminder, all students must be registered each year. To register, go to the Nebo School District or Apple Valley websites. Click the registration tab. If your student will NOT be attending Apple Valley next year, please respond to this email and let us know where they will be attending.
During registration, you will be prompted to pay an optional $25 donation per student. These donations help fund assemblies, field trips, classroom project supplies, and other programs at our school. Your donations are greatly appreciated.
The application for free and reduced lunch is not released until July of each year. You can log back into your iCampus Parent Portal at that time to submit a free and reduced lunch application. To qualify for free and reduced lunch, this application must be completed each year regardless of previous years' statuses.
For Kindergarten Registration, you will indicate your preference for Half or Full-Day Kindergarten. Whether Apple Valley offers an AM, PM or both half-day classes will be determined by the overall half-day interest and staff availability. Parents selecting half-day kindergarten will be notified of their child's class placement in August.
You will also be asked to attest to your student's Toilet Training Readiness for Kindergarten. The District's Requirement on Toilet Training can be found here at JECB 3.9.
If you have any questions about online registration, please reach out to the office. We are happy to help! 801-754-9028. Thank you
