Your Input is Needed! We're gathering information from community members to inform VTSD's search for a new superintendent. Click here to share your thoughts on top issues facing the district and crucial expertise necessary for success.
Please remind your children that they should not be bringing cologne, perfume, body spray or anything like that to school. We have had a number of incidents over the last couple of weeks with students being sprayed in the face.
We have seen an increase in vandalism in our bathrooms, forcing us to close many of them throughout the day. Please remind your children that if they are found to be involved with making a mess in the bathrooms there will be significant consequences.
I am looking for some feedback as we head into the fourth marking period. If you have a couple of minutes, please take this survey. It is anonymous so please be as honest as you can. Thanks! https://forms.gle/yyQ3wpqmVvrQJj7EA
Reminder, if you are picking up your children at the end of the day please enter it in Genesis or call the office before noon that will help us make sure that your child is ready for pickup when you get here.
The SCA is hosting their Spring Shop from 4/30-5/2. Students are invited to shop for Mother's Day, Father's Day and Teacher Appreciation during their lunches. All gifts will be $10 or less.
