Dear Valley Charter Community,
Happy fall- we hope that everyone had a safe and enjoyable Halloween!
Please see below for some VCS information, updates, and to read our first VCS Equity Spotlight, which will be shared on a monthly basis to highlight a practice that advances our equity work- the broad goals of this work are to foster a sense of belonging and to promote equity of opportunity and outcomes for all VCS students.

Executive Director Update 10/21

Dear VCS Families,
It is hard to believe that we have been back to school for six weeks!; I spend time each week at VCES and VCMS and the sight and sounds of our students laughing, learning, collaborating, and connecting with one another on each campus fills me with joy and purpose every single day. While it has definitely been a school launch like no other, we are so happy to be back on campus with your children. Thank you to the leaders, staff and faculty at each school for working so hard to make this happen and to our families for supporting all of our efforts…..
