Good evening. We are flying through the beginning of summer, summer school session concluded on June 7th and Driver's Education wraps up this week. Knowing summer is here we are busy finishing up reports or the 23-24 year and planning for the 2024-25 school year. Here is the building report for VFHS for late May and early June. https://5il.co/2ngtr
Hello Summer! Hope everyone is enjoying some sunshine and family activities. Don't forget the Sunflower Summer App that can be downloaded. With this app you can find a multitude of Kansas locations and activities that you will have free access to for your children and two adults. There is so much to see and do within a relatively short distance and what better way to learn more about what Kansas has to offer.
Here is the link to our PK-8 Building Report. Enjoy! https://5il.co/2oabh
