It is hard to believe, but we are quickly approaching the end of the semester! Thank you all for a great first semester and for coming out to support all the students that have been involved in various extracurricular activities. I would also like to thank you for all you have done to support your student academically this year.

Seniors, whether you are planning to attend a 2- or 4-year university or a technical/vocational school, the V.I.P. Parent Booster Club is offering scholarships that can be used for the pursuit of higher education. You could pay tuition, purchase books, or whatever else you need, and the check is made payable to YOU, not your parents or the school.
