Welcome back to all!
VAHS got off to a smooth and successful first week. By all accounts, students have “hit the ground running.” Among the things we will focus on this year are our commitment to Project Based Learning, and to Character Education, each of which will permeate all that we do.
As part of our focus on Character Education, we will emphasize our Advisory process this year, to strengthen student/advisor relationships, to increase the level of support and guidance. Toward that effort, we are having a special Advisory period every day for the first couple weeks of school (please click here for the special bell schedule).

Open House on Aug. 13, Tuesday, 6:00-7:15pm -- 10th - 12th Grade Only
Parents of 10th - 12th graders are invited to the Fall 2019 Open House, at which parents will walk through an abbreviated student schedule, and have an opportunity to meet teachers, and learn more about their high schoolers’ classes.

Freshmen Orientation a huge success
The class of 2023 got off to a great start! We send thanks to all who came out, helped out, or helped make 9th Grade Orientation possible! We had a great time! More than half the 9th graders attended and the survey results indicate that the freshmen loved it and are ready to go.
WE ESPECIALLY THANK MR. MILLS, MS. NGUYEN, AND MS. O’KANE, WHOSE ENERGY AND VISION MADE IT ALL HAPPEN!
