Happy New Year from all of us at Vincennes Community School Corporation.

We would like to wish you and your family a very Merry Christmas!

We’re just hours away from Holiday Vacation! There will be no school Monday, December 22 through Friday, January 2. Students will return on Monday, January 5.

We hope our students and families enjoy a safe, fun, and relaxing break filled with time to recharge and make memories.

Are you traveling, staying cozy at home, or celebrating with family and friends? Let us know how you’re spending your holiday break!

Aria Chanley had a different way of getting to school on Friday. VCSC Police Officer Kyle Evans took Aria to school in his police truck after she won the “Ride to School with a Police Officer” during the annual Chili Supper.

The VCSC Elementary Basketball Tournament was full of excitement and great competition!

Franklin Elementary School's Amber Soderling received a wonderful surprise on Wednesday when the Knox County Chamber of Commerce named her the Superstar Teacher of the Month.

Help us celebrate this well-deserved honor! If you had Mrs. Soderling as a teacher, share a favorite memory or moment from her class—we’d love to hear the impact she’s had on our students and community.
