Please see the following informational meeting to be hosted by MoDOT:
“First Impact – Keeping Your Teen Driver Safe” presentation will be held at the MoDOT NE District Office in the Missouri Room from 6:00 – 7:30 PM on November 30th. This informative session is offered free of charge and is designed to assist parents in mentoring their novice drivers through the pre-permit, permit and license process while also gaining insights into the Graduated Driver’s License (GDL) law.
Parents of the Class of 2024 met with Mrs. Utterback and Mrs. Jones this evening to learn more about what to expect as a senior parent. Thanks to all who attended!
What an exciting night of basketball! Both the Junior High Girls and Boys came out with wins against the Wellsville Tigers. Great job to both teams!
Please join us in celebrating our first student to complete the Jail Officer Academy through the Montgomery County Sheriff's Office! Ashton Dyke successfully completed six days of intense training and earned a position with the Montgomery County Jail. Ashton is a Junior at Van-Far High School and aspires to serve within this capacity following graduation. Congratulations, Ashton! We are so proud of all of your hard work! Thank you for balancing all of this, plus earning excellent grades in our classrooms!
Senior Parents: Just a reminder, the meeting is tomorrow evening. If you have questions you would like us to consider, please email them to Mrs. Utterback at sutterback@vf.k12.mo.us. Of course, we'll still take questions at the meeting, but just want to be as prepared as possible for tomorrow night too!
See you there!
Happy Monday! We wanted to provide a quick update pertaining to the next playoff game for our Indians. The kids will play on Friday evening at St. Vincent at 7:00 p.m.
We are offering a spirit bus for students who wish to attend. This will be capped at 50 and will be open to high school students first, followed by junior high students. Students will be expected to pay for their own tickets and will need to get a permission slip from the office to attend. There will be a sign up sheet on the board across from the office. There is currently a JH basketball game scheduled versus Community, but Coach Elledge is working on a rescheduling date with them in hopes of moving it so the kids can attend if they'd like.
Further details about the game will be released as well have them, but as most realize, playoffs are just that, you play until you're off. Our Indians delivered their best game of the season Saturday at home, but sadly will be on the road from here on out. We'd love to see the stands filled with black and gold next Friday!
We are excited for today and wanted to send one more reminder about details for today, as well as to share that we are NOT able to steam the game today. We are trying to keep up with deleting all of the messages that share links claiming to stream the game, but there are many and we are busy with other details for today. Please do not share information with those links as they are not affiliated with us as a district and we do not believe are steaming our students' game today!
The bleachers are finished! The Boosters are cooking! It's a beautiful sunny afternoon! Come sporting your black and gold as they host the Chaffee Red Devils!
Your JH boys played against Bowling Green tonight at home. We should be proud of them for working hard and playing with character!
Senior Parents: Please make plans to join us for an informational meeting, plus a time for you to ask questions you may have about having a senior. Hope to see you there!
