Reminder to SVCS Community: No school this Friday or next Monday.
Friday is a scheduled school break and Monday is President's Day. Enjoy your 4-day weekend!
Reminder! Every school year, students entering kindergarten, 6th grade, and 12th grade require certain vaccinations and booster shots before entering those specific grade levels. If your 5th grader is already 11 years old, they can go ahead and get their Tdap and MCV4 (meningococcal) vaccines for 6th grade. For high school students over 16 years of age, they can go ahead and get their required MCV4 booster shot in preparation for their senior year. Appointments take time to schedule, so please start making plans now with your doctor, VPCHC Mobile Health Bus, or local health department to get these state-required school vaccinations! If you need more information, please reach out to your school nurse.
🍋📖Our One School One Book project is underway in our 3 elementary schools this month. All students and staff are reading The Lemonade War by Jacqueline Davies. A summary from bookrags.com states, "This fictional novel addresses the complex relationship between brothers and sisters, as well as how arguments can spiral out of control when people quit communicating with each other. In the end, the siblings realize that working together is better than working against each other."
🍋📚Our students are learning the basics of economics, entrepreneurial skills, marketing, competition, and even forgiveness while reading this book at home with their families (or by listening to the chapter recordings via Canvas). Stay tuned for next week, students and families, because Superintendent Chapman provided the recording for chapter 8!
🍋📗Thank you to this year's sponsors: Clinton Optimists Club, Tri Kappa, Crown Hill Dentistry, Local Coordinating Council (LCC) of Vermillion County, ELANCO, and Vermillion County Community Foundation.
