Dear VMS Parents,

As you have likely heard, the California Department of Public Health issued a Stay at Home Order yesterday, 12/3. In response, five bay area county health officers, including Alameda, have decided to join forces in imposing this order earlier than required, in an effort to reduce the strain on the intensive care units

at area hospitals due to the Covid-19 surge. Alameda County's order begins Monday, 12/7.

Under this order, schools that are currently open may remain open with existing safety protocols in place. VMS will continue operating as we have been for both on-campus and off-campus students. We will communicate any new information as we receive it from both the ACPHD and ACOE. We continue on this journey together and are thankful for your ongoing support.

With Gratitude,

Ann Clark, Head of School
