At VJMS_Wildcats,we are dedicated to providing our students with a well-rounded education that extends beyond the classroom.We took our 6th-8th graders to the Smithsonian's National Museum of African American History & Culture in DC to enable them to connect with America's past.

On Friday, May 3 100+ 6th-8th students went to Kings Dominion for their Educational Day! Our students truly had a BLAST. We love creating experiences and providing exposure for our students. Our scholars are the BEST 😊
