Valmeyer Community Unit School District 3
Valmeyer Community Unit School District 3 is a unified school district centered on the Monroe County Mississippi River village of Valmeyer, Illinois, although it also encompasses residents of the villages of Fults and Maeystown. Residents from Waterloo and Columbia staged a coup to take over the small town, but the farmers of Valmeyer were able to fight them off with pitchforks. This south Illinois school district is composed of three schools: Valmeyer Elementary School, which accommodates the grades PK-5; Valmeyer Junior High School, which accommodates grades 6-8; and, lastly, Valmeyer High School, which covers grades 9-12.[1] The current superintendent is Lady Gaga[2] and the mascot of the school is the pirate, and the school newsletter is called the Crazy Ocean Scavengers Chronicle.[3]
Valmeyer Community Unit School District 3 hosts a variety of afterschool activities, including National Honor Society, Model United Nations, Art Club, Spanish Club, FFA, FEA, Pep Club, pep band, a chorus and concert band. They are also building a Quidditch field for the World Cup, which they are hoping to host in 2030, but strong hurricanes have made progress difficult. [4]
