Round 1 of our Chromebook Student Purchase Project begins next week. Chromebook devices must be picked up by a parent or guardian (grades 1 - 6) in the VCS office on one of the following dates: June 18, 19, 20, 24, 25, 26, 27 between the hours of 7:30am and 3pm. Please bring cash or check in the amount of $30 per device (we cannot accept credit or debit cards). Round 1 sales are only open to current students in grades 1 - 6--who will be purchasing their own device.
Once this round 1 purchase period is over, we will assess the amount of remaining devices (if any) and develop a plan for the sale of remaining devices to staff and students in grades PK, K, 7 & 8.
Thank you for your patience while we work through this first of it's kind project (for VCS).
Thank you Courtney, Andy, and Smitty (not in pic) for helping assemble our outdoor classroom tables. This addition to our learning garden will make it easier for classrooms to enjoy this beautiful space! Two down, two to assemble!
Congratulations Anna MacDonald, VCS Principal for the Day! She had a full agenda including reading to Pre-K, checking in with each classroom, and having a morning meeting with the Town Manager to discuss the budget!

Today was our last FLEX Friday for the year. The Reduce, Reuse, Recycle club met with James Dunning, Assistant General Manager at Casella who talked about how recycling in our region works. Students learned about what items you can and cannot recycle!
The after school garden club did not get a lot of support from Mother Nature this spring, but took full advantage of yesterday afternoon's sunny weather! They have prepped our beds, planted vegetables, and even started experimenting with our hydroponic carts!
The spring concert was last week, but our bands are still learning new music! Today they were playing the theme music to Mario Brothers while classmates took turn playing the actual Mario Brothers game using Mr. Arell's original Nintendo!
