ConVal hosted the NHCUC Mini College Fair on Tuesday, September 16, 2025, welcoming representatives from fifteen colleges and universities across New Hampshire.

More than 130 students in grades 9–12 attended the event, taking advantage of the opportunity to connect with admissions representatives, explore a wide range of academic programs, and learn more about their future college options.

As part of Open House, Principal McKillop met with ConVal school bus drivers in the library. Reflecting on her own experience with her bus driver as a very young student, she expressed appreciation for their central role in ConVal's positive school culture.

Bus drivers establish the first and last impression of the school day for students, provide a safe and reliable start to their daily education, foster a respectful atmosphere on the bus, and act as crucial resources for student well-being.

ConVal's school bus drivers embody a sense of a caring school community that extends beyond academics — thank you for all that you do!

The ConVal High School Fall Open House was held on Thursday, September 11. 137 families took the opportunity to connect with school counselors and administrators.

Families got to interact with classroom teachers, learn about their specific teaching styles, review the curriculum, understand classroom expectations, and get answers to questions.

Events like Open House are crucial building blocks in building a collaborative partnership that is crucial for student growth.

ConVal seniors proved themselves adaptable as they adjusted their dismissal routine during a staggered release on Thursday.

This was the first day that the NuKase electronic device management system was in place.

At the end of the school day, students had no problem getting their devices unlocked with Mr. Mudrick before heading to the buses.
