Family Room
Bruce Vento Family Center
At Bruce Vento Elementary, we believe in the power of partnerships between home and school. We are here to support your child, your family, and the larger community.
Bruce Vento partners with Family Values for Life to provide basic needs to our community. Please come by our Family Center Monday - Thursday 7:30am-4:30pm. We have a food shelf, clothing closet, and diaper bank on site. We can also help with connecting you to resources for housing, employment, ulitities, county services, and more.
Please reach out if you are interested in visiting your child's classroom, volunteering, or connecting with your child's teacher or another staff member. Families are an important part of our school community. We appreciate all you are doing to support your child’s education. We embrace the beauty of our rich diversity. Interpreters are available to assist families throughout the school day. All school documents may be translated upon request (translations below)
