➤ Fall and Winter Intersession
I would like to offer intersession days during Thanksgiving and Winter breaks to support our students and families during these non-school days. Intercession days would run from 8:00-5:00 (students could attend any portion of the day) and would be available to students at no cost. Intersession days would include free play, group activities, and age/grade level appropriate academic support.
If you would be interested in having your child attend Intersession days, please communicate directly with Rebecca (please do not reply to this bulletin email).

➤ Enrichment Activity: Cocinando en Español
Hello VCS community! Carolina (Solomon and Noa’s mom) and Claudia (Lucía’s mom) will be offering an enrichment activity for students in TK-5th grades. Our intention is for kids to have fun cooking simple and delicious snacks while learning Español. Each week kids will learn vocabulary related to cooking and prepare their own snacks. The Cocinando en Español Activity will run for 5 weeks starting the week of Nov. 11th and ending the week of Dec. 16th (we won’t meet the week of Thanksgiving). We will meet each Tuesday from 3:30-4:30pm. Each week students will report to after care and will be picked up at 3:30 to start the activity. If you have any questions, don’t hesitate to contact Claudia (text 707-318-5466). We ask that students interested in participating sign up and fill out the form https://forms.gle/WrfRvDH2yxxG9aWU8
