VCS provides a culture of achievement where students radiate intellectual vitality – reaching and advancing beyond traditional notions of what K-8 students can accomplish. VCS students live their learning through active experiences that delve deeply into subject matter and make connections between disciplines. For over 40 years, VCS graduates have gone on to excel at highly competitive high schools, universities and professions.
Successful VCS students are diverse in personalities, strengths and interests. What unites them is their vibrant intellectual curiosity. They are enthusiastic learners who enjoy our stimulating, hands-on teaching methods. They embrace new experiences and delve deeply into subject matter. They welcome opportunities to play different roles, whether classroom leader or collaborative team member.
