Ms. Rinaldi’s 7th grade classes created bilingual Earth Day posters to share with their classmates. On each poster, students highlighted the importance of protecting the planet by writing in both English and the target language. They used commands and relevant vocabulary to encourage others to take action, such as reducing waste, conserving water, and caring for the environment. The project gave them a fun way to build language skills while spreading an important message!

The annual VCMS Art Show was on display for all to see in the VCMS Cafeteria last week.It is an amazing collection of exceptional examples of the artwork that is created in both Mrs. Nevins' and Ms. Bronner's classes. Opening night of this Art Show was a wonderful success on Wednesday evening! Students proudly shared their creativity with family, friends, and community members while the makeshift gallery was filled with excitement and appreciation for their work. The exhibit highlighted a wide range of artistic styles, ideas, and techniques, showcasing the imagination and effort our young artists put into their creations. It was a fantastic celebration of student talent and the vibrant art program at our school.
