The Year in Alumni Events
In March, our High School Reunion brought the Classes of 2019–2022—and their parents—back to VCS for an informal gathering on the 4th Floor. Some of these graduates were just finishing up their freshman year, while others were anticipating news on college applications and preparing for their high school Graduations. Always great to see our most recent graduating classes pick up right where they left off with each other and the VCS staff.

On Friday, May 5th, VCS hosted its very first 50-Year Reunion Alumni from the Classes of 1973 and 1974—the school’s first graduating Classes—traveled far and wide for the chance to return to West 10th Street and connect with their old classmates. We were even joined by Rob Madell, the school’s first Math teacher!
Today’s VCS looks quite different than the one-building school these alums remember. After meeting in the old Lobby (once the site of the Little Yard), alums toured the expanded campus before convening for dinner in the new Library. We hear the party continued well after they left VCS that evening!
Just a couple months after the High School Reunion, the Class of 2019 returned in early May for a Reunion all their own, this time full of exciting college acceptance news and summer travel and internship plans. It’s amazing to see how these students have transformed over the last four years of high school—and how many of them have managed to maintain strong bonds with their VCS classmates while studying at different schools.
Even after the academic year concluded, we snuck in one last alumni event: alums from the Class of 2015 and their families joined us for dinner in the Library on Tuesday, June 20th. Many members of this Class—our recent college grads—hadn’t yet had a chance to meet Jen or check out the new Wing, and it was almost as exciting to share the school’s updates with these former students as it was to hear about their own!
