Educating Global Citizens Since 1948
Why VVS? Because we are the exception. The exception to the traditional model of education. The exception to high-pressured, high-stakes academic stress. The exception to a world of distraction and the barrage of technology. The exception to the norm, where being the same is celebrated.
Why VVS? Because within this community you become the exception.

United World College Visit
This would be a cultural exchange with UWC-USA, an international IB school from NM, and they will be in the area as part of their Project Week. I would be the the contact person and Zane has offered to give them a tour of the school that could include classroom visits, buddy up partners with VVS students, sustainability tour, etc. Kaylyn also offered to share an activity, and I would take the group hiking in the afternoon. They would also interact with our students at lunch and dinner in the dining hall and quad.Contact: John Sheedy
