On Monday, the CAS Scholar Leader banquet was held at the Aqua Turf in Southington. Each middle school in the state selects two 8th graders who exemplify leadership, hard work, and academic achievement. VCMS honored Sarah Rizzo and Lucas Herzog. Both students attended the dinner with their families and a staff member of their choice.
Congratulations Sarah and Lucas - you lead by example everyday. We are so incredibly proud of you both!
8th Graders - mark your calendars! The 8th grade dance is Friday, May 30th from 6:30pm - 8:30 pm.
Tickets are $10 each, or $7 with 3 eagle bucks.
No tickets can be purchased at the door.
You do need to be present in school that day to attend the dance.
We can't wait to see you there!

VCMS's Bermuda Workshop is in full swing this week. Each year, we send twenty 8th graders to the Bermuda Institute of Ocean Sciences (BIOS) for a week to be immersed in ocean science and research, and learn all about the island history and culture.
Our team left bright and early Sunday morning (thank you moms for getting up so early on Mother's Day!) and then flew out of Boston to Bermuda. Once there, they settled in and immediately went on a hike and did their first snorkeling at Whalebone Bay.
Other adventures include a tour of Walsingham Nature Preserve and a trip to Nonsuch Island!
These 20 students applied, wrote essays, and interviewed as part of the application process, then spent months learning about the history, floral, and fauna of the island and surrounding waters. We are lucky to be one of the few middle school programs invited to BIOS, and we are proud to have continued this tradition for over 50 years!

This hearty dish honors the Indigenous "Three Sisters Planting Method" of growing corn, beans, and squash together—a practice that nourishes both the land and our students. Did your student try it?
