About Freshman Academy
Our goal is to make your transition to high school as smooth as possible and to help you feel more comfortable while achieving academic success in your first year at VTHS. During your freshman year, you will be immersed in a team-centered environment where your teachers, counselors, and administrators are committed to creating a positive and successful high school experience. Not only will you be learning about the various subject areas, but also John Wooden’s Pyramid of Success and the lessons that support our VTHS Freshman Academy philosophy.
