VU students are learning through hands-on creative projects this year, and it has made a world of a difference! We are still looking for volunteers for this school year and would love to have extra help ❤️

The 2024-2025 school year is a wrap! 🎉 This year, VU helped 19 students, held three special academic events, and started a new Library Monday program.

We are so proud of the students and grateful for such an incredible group of volunteers! ❤️

🤗 So far this year, our students have improved their grades 13.7% in Math and 9% in Language Arts! 🥳

🎉 Their hard work is paying off! 🧐

Education, like nature, needs nurturing to grow. 🌱

This Earth Day, consider planting the seed of knowledge by volunteering with us! 📚💙

Last weekend one of our board members met Joshua DeSmyter at Celebrate Reston! 🎉🥳

We can’t wait for VU students to read his new book and learn not to be afraid of the principal’s office! 😳🤗
