VMS Weekly Update
4/21/23
Spring is Here (kind of)
The snow is gone and hopefully we will not get any more. Spring has sprung and with that we begin to plan for the fall. Look for communication coming from us next week about transportation for the 2023-2024 school year.
We are in the middle of MCA testing. We wrapped up reading this week, math is next week and science (grade 8 only) is the following week. Please encourage your students to do their best on these assessments as the data collected informs us how we can best assist or challenge students in the coming years.
It was just a year ago when I was first hired into this position. I can honestly say it has been the fastest moving year of my career. I have zero regrets being in this position and have enjoyed being of service to all of our students and families. I appreciate the communication from families and the interactions I have with all of our students. I look forward to continuing this into the next school year. My hope is that all of our students have a positive experience at VMS and go on to do great things and accomplish their dreams and goals.
