VCS Farm to School Week 2008!

Second Annual VCS Farm 2 School Week

Sept. 15-19

VCS will be holding its second annual Farm 2 School Week Sept. 15-19, in accordance with the dates suggested by the state Dept. of Education. The highlight of our F2S week are the local, fresh foods that will be served in our cafeteria EVERY DAY of the week-long event, with Wednesday being our big Harvest Luncheon. Check the white board by the cafeteria each morning to see what is being served and the farms producing the foods. Hats off to our Food Service Staff for preparing locally grown foods for our school community.
In addition, we will be hearing Fun Farm Facts each morning during announcements, and a Farm exhibit will be displayed in our atrium again. We are very pleased to have VCS' own Emily Cates, who owns Harvest Moon Farm in China with her husband, Doug, coming to school for the day on September 18. Emily will be bringing all kinds of live poultry as well as an incredibly variety of vegetables grown on her farm to share with the students.
Celebrate local farms and food, and encourage your child to eat “hot lunch” each day next week; it's not only nutritious and delicious, but leaves a very small carbon footprint on our planet!

Fun web site from New York Zoos and Aquarium folks

BuiLD YouR WiLD SeLF

It's a bit of a lazy Saturday for me and I'm sitting around watching silly cartoons and surfing the 'net. A mid-western teacher colleague of mine that I follow on Twitter shared a really cool web site with me. The folks from the New York Zoos and Aquarium have created a fun web site called BuiLD YouR WiLD SeLF. Rather than spend too much time explaining it, I encourage you to click BuiLD YouR WiLD SeLF and go see for yourself! Have fun!

Flag Day 2008

Friday June 13th marked the VCS Flag Day ceremony. This years ceremony was especially meaningful as it was in memory of our longtime flag raiser and friend...Julie Booker.
