We are excited to announce a new partnership with the Vermont Academy of Science and Engineering (VASE) Hands-on Science and Technology Grant program. VDS was recently awarded a grant to expand our middle school FIRST Lego League team.

We are thrilled to announce initial plans to build an addition on to our current school building. This will allow us to continue to grow intentionally, while staying at our current, beloved location. Our new space will include a suite of new classrooms, a STEM lab, and a multi-use flex space for gatherings, presentations, lunch and music/band. Check back in for updates on our progress!

Thank to our community for all the generous donation to our “Healthy Food and Smiles Drive!’ In total, Vermont Day School collected 722 pounds of food and dental products. The contributions were delivered to the Food Shelf by our 4th/5th grade class, who organized the drive.

Our community celebrated the 3rd annual Gingerbread Festival on Sunday, December 16th. Participants enjoyed the variety of gingerbread themed activities, including the gingerbread house making, life-sized Candyland game and arts and crafts. Congratulations to all the participants and winners who entered in the annual Gingerbread Structure Building contest. Thank you to our parents volunteers for helping to organize this fun and festive event!

Vermont Day School teams participated in a Lego League competition at Norwich University on December 7th. The teams worked throughout the fall to prepare for the challenges in coding and robotics. It was a great learning experience all around!
