Valley View High School

📍 Washington, D.C. | United States Capitol Valley View is proud to recognize Joann Kim, senior at Valley View High School and current Arkansas HOSA–Future Health Professionals President. Joann, along with her advisor Ms. Rich, represented our Blazers at the HOSA Washington Leadership Academy (WLA) this week. The WLA brings together HOSA leaders from across the nation to sharpen leadership skills, connect with peers, and advocate for the future of healthcare in our nation’s capital. We are proud of Joann’s leadership and the way she continues to shine a light on Valley View across the state and nation.

📚 VVHS teachers had a great day of professional development! We’re recharged, refreshed, and excited to see our students tomorrow! 💙💛

☀️🚗⚡ Blazers are chasing the sun! Mrs. Heather Hutchinson’s AP Environmental class is putting their brainpower (and solar power!) to the test by designing and building solar cars. 🌍🔋 From learning about solar energy to testing aerodynamics and electrical engineering, these students are proving that hands-on learning is the best way to spark innovation. 💡✨

🎉 BIG NEWS from The View! 🎉 Help us give a HUGE congratulations to Joann Kim, one of our incredible Girls State Delegates, who has just been selected as a GIRLS NATION DELEGATE! 🇺🇸✨ This is an unbelievable honor — only two delegates from each state are chosen to represent their state at Girls Nation in Washington, D.C., and Joann earned one of those spots! To even be considered, Joann had to stand out among hundreds of the best and brightest at Arkansas Girls State — giving speeches, participating in debates, and showcasing her leadership, character, and passion for public service. Now she’ll head to D.C. this summer, where she’ll meet with other delegates from across the nation, learn more about government, meet national leaders, and even visit the White House! 🏛️ We are SO proud of you, Joann!
