It’s that time of the year again . . . . Vassar Public School Theater Department will present the play, HAPPY DAZE! Come join us on Saturday, March 16 at 7:00 or Sunday, March 17th at 2:00 pm. Tickets are available beforehand by contacting a cast member and visiting the high school office. Tickets will also be available at the door the day of the performance.
Those in attendance should watch for some pretty nostalgic Vassar attire!
This will also be the last time to catch our remarkable seniors: James Wood, Daniel Sanders, Nick Tallman, Le’Myah Golden, and Baeli Partridge grace our stage!
Of course, we are disappointed that our non-homestead millage and bond proposal were unsuccessful.
We plan to assess the election results before deciding our next steps.
Vassar Public Schools wants to assure parents, members of the community, and school staff that—despite this setback—we will continue moving forward and working together to provide the best possible educational experience for students and other members of the Vassar community. Thank you for caring enough to vote.
