Activities

Energy Bus

Field Trips

Students extend their learning beyond the classroom through field trips that provide exciting and engaging hands-on learning opportunities. These opportunities create the right balance of fun and education to develop critical thinking skills and bring classroom theory to life while making learning fun. Our trips vary from The Orlando Science Center, Clearwater Marine Aquarium, Busch Gardens Physics Day and more.

Pep Rallies

Pep rallies are a way we spotlight and showcase our student athletes and various clubs/organizations. It is our way of honoring our exceptional students and how they contribute to our school. In addition to our athletes and organizations, we offer a variety of opportunities for students to show school spirit with some friendly competition. We host relays and various student/teacher challenges to leave the students with a strong sense of pride for their school.

School Dances

School dances allow students a safe and structured environment to be social and spend time with friends. They are also a way for students to become involved and demonstrate their creativity through planning and decorating as they participate in Student Council. Student Council uses peer relationships to involve the majority of the student body in the dance process. Students can also take advantage of photo booths that are provided as part of the dance ticket as well as an option to purchase souvenirs to enjoy and commemorate the experience.

Student Organizations & Clubs

Extra-curricular clubs and student organizations also provide students opportunities to connect with the community and one another. From Student Council to Science Olympiad and much more, get involved!

High School Life

Student life at VHS reflects our community of students and the diversity of their interests and passions. Through engaging activities, events and clubs, students are provided opportunities to explore their interests, hone their talents, and connect with one another.
