    • How to sign up for your Electives

      DIRECTIONS

      All Students: Use the Course Descriptions to make your choices. Be prepared to accept any combination of the choices you submit. These electives will meet during your regular school day. Elective choices are to be selected through the PowerSchool Parent/Student Portal once it has been opened (these Instructions are below.)

      Incoming Sixth Grade Students: Please select six different semester-long introduction courses, three preferred and two alternative choices and a required Introduction to Technology class.  All incoming sixth grade students MUST select Introduction to Technology.

      • If you desire access to a yearlong elective, due to your skill exceeding an introductory level course, then please contact (or have your parents contact) via email:

      (1) the relevant teacher (their email address is below in the Course Descriptions)

      (2) your Academic Counselor (cclark@vcs.net) 

      Incoming Seventh and Eighth Grade Students: You must select four different yearlong elective courses, two preferred and two alternative choices. Priority is given to eighth grade students.

            • Courses requiring a prerequisite, audition, or application - you will be notified of your acceptance by April 1, so please wait to make your selection until AFTER you have heard back from the teacher; otherwise, that course will be removed from your selection.

            • If you have not been recommended for an audition-based course already, please schedule an appointment for an audition by emailing: 

      (1) the relevant teacher (their email address is below in the Course Descriptions)

      (2) and copy Mrs. Michelle McLaughlin at mmclaughlin@vcs.net

  • Yearbook

    Yearbook is a fun, fast-paced class where students will work together using technology such as digital cameras, iPads, and an online design software to record the memories of the school year. Students will learn and practice design skills, interviewing skills, and writing skills to tell the story of the year in an exciting way. Applicants need to be organized, creative, goal-oriented, and ready for both work and fun.  (We always make time to celebrate deadline completions!)

    Open to seventh and eighth grade students only. Placement in this class is by teacher approval.
