Each Friday our secondary students gather for Chapel. Eagle Song led us in worship followed by a message from Pastor McFarland giving us an overview of Psalms and reminding us of the importance of God's Word and the beauty in taking time to pause and listen to Him.
🏐 IT’S GAME DAY! 🦅
Our Lady Eagles are home tonight for the Volleyball Home Opener! Come out, bring your family, and fill the stands as we kick off the season on our home court!

Small class sizes allow our teachers more opportunities to give one-with-one support to students. This is especially important at the start of the year when teachers are assessing where students are at and then able to make decisions early on that will best support each individual student's learning journey for the year.
Mornings are for Math! And we caught 3rd grade, 5th grade, and 6th grade working hard reviewing concepts they learned last year!
Mrs. Garner and the 9th graders took their learning outside today for a Biology scavenger hunt!
After reviewing their new vocabulary words, the class headed out with a bucket and a partner to hunt for things like an autotroph, a gymnosperm, and an Eukaryote.
The first Friday of the year means Secondary Retreat and what a great day our 7-12th graders had! A very special thank you to our host church, Calvary Lawrence, for your amazing hospitality today!
We started the day with breakfast and gathered for worship. Followed by our houses creating their house flag and chant for the year. For our service project we headed across the road to Bridgepoint Church where we helped spruce up the landscaping. The afternoon was spent with house competitions where each house hosted a game. We ended the hot day with Kona Ice for everyone!
We love getting to see our students connect with one another outside of the classroom and across grade levels and watch our upper class grow in their leadership from year to year!
It's GAME DAY at Bennett Field!
It’s time to get loud for our Junior High Football Team!
Come cheer on our Eagles as they hit the field! Let’s go, Veritas!

The calendar may say summer but our teachers have been hard at work preparing for an even stronger school year at Veritas!
Over the past several weeks, faculty teams have collaborated to strengthen key areas of our program, including:
📊 Analyzing CLT assessment data to better support student growth
➕ Enhancing lower and upper elementary math intervention strategies
📚 Developing junior high executive functioning and organizational supports
🎓 Aligning high school curriculum to ensure a cohesive, rigorous classical education.
We're excited for the year ahead and can't wait to see how God will work through our faculty, staff, and students in the coming months!
Last week our Head of School, Mrs. Biggerstaff, attended the ACCS Repairing the Ruins Conference where Veritas was officially recognized for accreditation. The following statement came from the ACCS page:
"ACCS accreditation is the only widely recognized and accepted accreditation specifically designed for classical Christian schools. The accreditation process is rigorous and generally takes 12 – 24 months to complete. Achieving ACCS accreditation is quite a feat, and these schools deserve recognition"
We are thrilled to receive this recognition and what this means for VCS and the path forward.
