Q4 Begins - Time to buckle down
Principal Batten's Weekly Message
I hope that you had a wonderful Spring Break and Easter holiday. Q4 begins in earnest this week, and it's crucial that students buckle down ("lock in") and end the 2025-26 year strong.
Virtual learning is extremely challenging and students MUST check their email daily, attend all scheduled Zoom classes and interventions, and complete assignments daily in order to be successful at V3A.
Seniors interested in going to the 2026 joint HS prom at VCHS should complete and return the prom permission form to Dr. Batten by Wednesday, April 8th. V3A Seniors are also reminded to please pay V3A senior dues by Friday, April 10th so that we can order your graduation materials including cap, gown, stole, tassel, diploma, and diploma cover). Both the prom and V3A graduation dues can be paid through the K12paymentCenter.
