Nicolas Folino (10th)
Nickolas is a fantastic leader who brings so much energy and desire to learn to the classroom. He is kind to classmates and teachers and overall is a great student.
Robert Allard (9th)
You can always count on Robby to be there to help, and he stays to make sure things are properly finished.
Ledger Opperman-Bostater (6th)
Ledger stands at the front door every morning holding the door for all the students entering the building by the flagpole. From the time he gets dropped off, until the bell rings, he is standing at the door holding it for everyone to enter. Nice Job Ledger!
Sara Emery (12th):
Sara has quickly become a student leader in her government team. She is kind and helps direct her peers.
Lemuel Golden (6th):
Lem has shown that he is willing to go extra to help others out. He has helped students get caught up with work when they have missed school. He also will very politely correct students to get them to focus on what they are supposed to be doing. He truly shows what a positive Vulcan is all about.


Forge On!


September was a busy month for college and career exploration at Vassar! Our students had the opportunity to meet with representatives from a variety of colleges, universities, and organizations to learn more about their future options.
This month, we welcomed visitors from Mid Michigan School of Cosmetology, Ironworkers Union Local 25, Saginaw Valley State University, Kettering University, Lawrence Technological University, Grand Valley State University and Western Michigan University. Representatives from the National Guard and U.S. Marines also joined us during lunches to talk with students about military pathways.
Weāre grateful to all of these organizations for taking the time to speak with our students and help them explore their college and career options!






We hope to see everyone out at the Pumpkin Roll next Saturday, Oct. 11! Looks like a lot of fun for the whole family!
