Hello VCS Families,
We are praying for this to be an amazing school year. Blessed is the man who walks not in the counsel of the ungodly, nor stands in the path of sinners, nor sits in the seat of the scornful; but his delight is in the law of the LORD, and in His law he meditates day and night. — Psalm 1:1-2.
There is no school on Friday, March 14th for Professional Development Day and March 21st is an Asynchronous day. March 21st there will be no school but students will have an assignment to complete that day for each class for a grade.
Attendance is so important for students to be successful at school. To help improve grades for the 2nd half of the school, please ensure your child gets to school by 7:15 so they can start the day strong and be ready to begin class on time.
Save the date for our annual Literacy Day, which will take place on March 15th from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. This event is open to the community, so please invite your friends and family.
If you would like to donate items to our basket raffle, please send them in with your child or send them to the Intermediate office.
We seek volunteers to help with the Scholastic Book Fair the week of March 10th. If you can volunteer during the school day, please reach out to Heather Zinz by calling the Intermediate Office or emailing at hzinz@vcsohio.org.
As a reminder, you can bring in store-bought treats for your child’s birthday, such as a bag of chips or cupcakes. We will pass out the treats during the last 15 minutes of the school day. Please let your student’s 9th-period teacher know if you will be sending in treats.
If you are changing your child’s dismissal method, i.e., from bus to car rider or car rider to bus, please call the office at 330-788-8088 by 1:45 pm to ensure Ms. Zinz can make the changes in KIDaccount.
Please check our Website for other relevant information: https://www.vcsohio.org/
We also have an Intermediate Facebook and Instagram page:
As a reminder, the tardy bell rings at 7:24. Please ensure your student is at school by 7:15 to be ready for 1st period. Coming to school late or leaving early affects student performance in the classroom.
A legal parent or guardian must accompany any Intermediate students attending all games/activities, either home or away. In addition, we will call parents or guardians to pick up their students if they try to attend a game/activity on their own.
Please do not drop your student off on the street in the morning. Instead, please pull into the half-circle to release your student so we can ensure their safety.
