Voices of VCS
Voices that Shape Our School: Insights from Students, Parents, and Alumni
"The power of the community is hard to put into words. It's about warmth and acceptance; it's about being friendly and knowing everyone in the building. It's about supporting kids, giving them the ability to become confident. They're not afraid to try new things because they've got a community standing behind them.” - Parent
“VCS has helped me to learn, helped me to find my voice, to find my confidence. It has prepared me for high school.”
– 8th Grade Graduation Speech
VCS’s approach is to teach children to love the process of learning rather than working for a grade. This allowed me to enter high school as engaged student with a love of learning and prepared me for the demanding environment of a selective high school. The exceptional faculty, along with the school's unique approach to teaching, creates a sense of community and support that has stayed with me to this day.” - Alum
Both of our daughters attended VCS from K-8 and we couldn't be more impressed with the incredible education they received – not only in the well-rounded academic program, with a focus on social issues, but in their preparedness as conscientious, thoughtful students ready to enter the next phase of their education (and beyond!)” - Parent
