Dear Middle School Families:
During Black History Month, our Multicultural Club is having special sessions on Mondays at lunch: February 3rd, 10th and 24th. At the first session, the students
learned of the bravery and resilience of Little Rock 9! On the 10th, different student presenters will focus on impactful figures from our nation's history including: Dr. Daniel Hale Williams, George Washington Carver, Mae
Jemison and Garrett A. Morgan. The 24th is to be determined, but will probably be led by a faculty member.
We are also including an important African-American from history in our daily announcements, and our social sciences classes have special projects during the month.
In His Service,
Joseph Rowland

Shakespeare On Tour!!
"
Methought I heard a voice cry, 'Sleep no more! Macbeth does murder sleep."
Macbeth (Act 2 Scene 2)
SF Shakes one-hour touring production of MacBeth travels to VCS with a cast of professional actors in costume, with set, props and live music.
At the conclusion of the show the cast will take questions from the audience
At the beginning of the play, Macbeth is a brave and loyal Thane to King Duncan. After hearing a prophecy that he will become king himself, Macbeth is overcome by ambition and greed with dire consequences.
We are so excited to offer this 55-minute show, performed in Shakespeare's original text to all students in VCMS and VCHS on Thursday, March 19.
All VCMS and VCHS students will be billed $7.50 for the performance with their March tuition invoice.

Continuous Enrollment
Each January, VCS will publish next year's tuition rates (www.go-vcs.com/admissions#enrollment) and fees. Each student has been automatically re-enrolled for the coming 2020-2021 school year. Continuous Enrollment.means that a student will have continuous enrollment at Vacaville Chrisitian each academic year, without the need to complete re-enrollment forms or pay any re-enrollment fees. Current students' enrollment will renew each successive academic year until the student has completed 12th grade at VCS.
Effective the 2020-2021 school year, any termination of Continuous Enrollment for the following school year will incur a withdrawal fee of $375, except when providing written notice of termination (school withdrawal form) for the following school year to the VCS Business Office, no later than March 1, 2020.
If you intend for any reason to withdraw for the 2020-2021 school year, please be sure you fill out the appropriate paperwork in the Business Office no later than March 1, 2020 deadline.

Our priority at VCS is to create a safe environment for your children the entire time they are on our campus. Our extended care program is one way we strive to provide that safety after our regular school ours. Students still on campus at 3:20 (2:25 on Tuesdays) will be escorted to the extended care room in the high school building. When an authorized person arrives to pick up a child in extended care, please call the extended care supervisor, who will release the child to leave through the locked front door of the high school.
Extended care teacher:
Katya Nelson: (707) 246-6314

Falcon Referral Program
VCS is offering a tuition discount for the 2019-2020 school year - The Falcon Referral Discount! You can earn $1000 credit towards your tuition for the 2019-2020 school year by referring a new family.
How does it work?
Refer a new family to VCS. When the new family enrolls for the 2019-2020 school year, the referring family (that's you!) and the new family will each receive $1000 credit for the 2019 -2020 school year, towards their tuition. You can refer up to five (5) families in one school year. The $1000 credit is off your total tuition, not per child.
For more details or to refer a friend to visit VCS, contact Maylene Ripley, Director or Enrollment at 707-446-1776, ext. 5300.
