Today Mrs. Johnson's class embarked on a new type of learning in math called Modern Classroom! All kids move through the lessons at their own pace! It was amazing!!


Good Evening, Jayhawk families,
There is no school on Monday, Sept 6.
Please remember to be very aware of your surroundings during drop off and pick up in the back parking lots and keep your speed below 10 mph. Follow the drop off routes and please stay with your child until a staff member is present and the doors open at 8:15am.
Also, if your child is not feeling well, please keep them home. Please continue to monitor for common COVID symptoms. If you notice symptoms, or if they have been exposed to a positive Covid case, have your child tested before returning them to school. We want to make sure everyone stays safe and healthy :)
Finally, please remember to send in your child with a labeled water bottle. It’s cooling down outside, but it’s still warm inside and they need to keep hydrated. Thank you.
Go Jayhawks!

‼️🆘‼️
We are in desperate need of 3-4+ volunteers to work the 2-6pm shift at the bingo tent at the fair on Friday. If you can help, we have gate passes to get you into the fair🎡🎠
Without more help we won't be able to stay open which may risk us being able to keep this contract in the future.
Volunteers must be 18 years of age or older (because it IS gambling). Please comment below if you can help the boosters out. You don't have to have a student at VCL to volunteer!
