Dear VCSC Community,

Certainly, with the times that we are in, none of us could have ever imagined or thought about what we might experience.

But with this stated, I could not be more proud of the people of the VCSC and this includes our staff, students, parents, and supporters as each, and every person has risen above in these unprecedented times.

As I have stated many times over, I feel fortunate to be an Alice, and with this to be the person that gets the privilege to lead our corporation.

One thing for certain, Alice Nation has always risen above, and they are doing it again and will continue to do this for many years to come.

Like you, I and so many others yearn for school to truly become school again.  It is that collective desire where a normal school year is the constant and where all students are in-person as it pertains to their instruction.

I also desire for our students to truly enjoy the many different experiences of just being a student.  This includes band performances, athletic events in which we do not have to put rules and guidelines in place, opportunities for parents and grandparents and others to actually be in all of our buildings with their students, field trips where our students get to experience so many other things both in and outside of Vincennes and the so many other things that we know is simply the normalcy of school of what we believe it to be.

I am confident that we will return to this normalcy and hopefully sooner rather than later.  But until then and as we enter and go into and throughout the holiday time, it is my simple wish and prayer for each member of our VCSC community that they remain safe and in good health.

Greg Parsley
