Wow! What a way to kick off Christmas Break! VMS staff and students had a (half) day packed full of fun and games!
Staff participated in a game of Roshambo (Rock, Paper, Scissors) throughout the morning (thanks Mrs. Foster!) This resulted in a semi-final of Mrs. Bancroft (our awesome substitute for Mrs. Steskal) vs. Mr. Sayer and the final match of Mr. Sayer vs. Mrs. Gass... although we're not sure if Mrs. Gass necessarily played fair 😉
Watch the videos here!

Following the Roshambo finals, students were recognized with near perfect attendance awards for the 1st semester, 2nd quarter Badger Effort Awards and then the grand finale of the Quiz Bowl tournament that student competed in all morning. Mrs. Perrett's Badger Pause beat out Mrs. Thorpe's Badger Pause by 1 point!
It was a great day at VMS and we wish everyone a very Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!
