Dear High School Families,
This morning, students were welcomed by a couple of our seniors who held signs at the front doors of our high school reading "free Christian side hugs" and "Have a blessed day!" I was so encouraged by the gesture that I went back outside for a free hug in order to begin my day in the positive. Our senior class is a group of exemplary students, who work hard, have deposited in the school community and lead by example. Please give someone a hug and share some Godly love for those in your circle of influence.
In His Service,
Joseph Rowland

Upcoming Dress Code Discussion
After having students voice their ideas about the current dress code to Mr. Rowland, he decided to discuss a change in dress code policy and the possible ramifications of a change with our student council, our staff and now with our parents and students.
Students have proposed the following dress code considerations:
- That students be allowed to wear political clothing.
- That boys be allowed to have long hair, without the current restrictions.
- That girls be allowed to dye their hair various colors.
- That students be allowed to wear ripped jeans.
VCHS parents and students will be meeting on Wednesday evening, March 28th at 5:00 pm in the high school college resource room 202. Because of your busy schedules, we'd like to limit the meeting to an hour so that we don't eat into your valuable family time. If you are unable to attend, but would like to have something read at the meeting, that is another option. If you would simply like to communicate with administration but cannot attend, please send your thoughts to Mr. Rowland (joseph.rowland@go-vcs.com) or Mr. Renick (edward.renick@go-vcs.com).
