Our Academic Top Ten high school students were celebrated with a breakfast last Thursday. Not only was it a beautiful day, but they were able to bring an influential adult who has inspired them throughout their high school journey. It was amazing to see so many of our teachers and their parents in attendance. Congratulations to you, Top Ten!
Look how amazing our kids are: Mrs. Coppola, Mrs. Pellerito, and Ms. McCabe took their classes to the Outdoor Adventure Center and received this amazing note regarding their exemplary behavior and level of engagement. Thank you to our students, staff, and chaperones. Way to represent VDPS!
