During recent Physical Education classes, 4th graders play the game "kinball", a team sport created in Canada. Kinball is played with a ball that is 4 ft in diameter, but only weighs 2 pounds. The goal of the game is to catch and control the ball before it touches the ground. The 4th graders demonstrated amazing teamwork skills while playing this fun game!
Help us to share news of this cost and energy saving opportunity for qualifying individuals.

Hogan Road Hannaford has displayed some of our student work! If you recall, they had donated pumpkins for some of our younger students to paint. Please do not forget the Hannaford Helps campaign! Last year we won the store contest! Let's do it again!
At tonight's staff meeting, we slowed things down a bit and took a moment to reflect on, and celebrate our successes as a school. Thank you to the PTO for providing snacks and gifts!
Middle school students have been creating their own versions of the classic board game, Operation, in Library Media class using MakeyMakey and Scratch. Using their “Maker Mindset,” students have taken on many STEM challenges, worked cooperatively to figure out what materials are conductors and insulators, and even learned about open and closed circuits using humans as the loop for electrons to flow. Three of the Operation games were featured at our Hullabaloo!
A few pics from tonight's Halloween Hullabaloo....our PTO put on an amazing Trunk or Treat outside, while the VCS Student Council hosted games and dancing inside! More pics to follow tomorrow (including some of the outstanding 'trunk' displays).
Please check out our lost and found table. It is already quite large. We also have a “Free” table from many donations of winter wear, backpacks and shoes!!
