The facts don’t lie, Taos Community: VGHS starts the 26-27 school year tomorrow and we are STOKED!

Still figuring out where to go for school? Here are the top 5 reasons for VGHS:
1. Hands-on, Place-Based Experiential Learning opportunities. We get students up and moving to enhance their traditional classroom learning.

2. Dual enrollment opportunities with unmtaos
Get the experience, work towards life after High School and save money!!

3. Work-Based Learning opportunities. Earn money while exploring jobs that you find interesting. Learn the soft skills and build yourself up to earn more money!

4. Small school love and high expectations. Did you know VGHS got off designation for being a ‘comprehensive school improvement’ school, due to our high graduation rate? VGHS is getting stronger and stronger, pushing our students further while they’re in high school so they’re better set up for long-term success.

5. Graduate early!! Come in, take advantage of our opportunities and set yourself up to graduate early, to get work experience and to get post-secondary credits for free.

Come and join the VGHS community. We’re stoked to have you!

VGHS students finished strong with the 25-26 school year! Those that met specific marks in attendance, behavior and grades were able to have the opportunity to attend a trip to Great Sand Dunes National Park and the hot springs in Hooper

This was a great trip with bluebird skies, outdoor recreation, dipping in the hot springs, and a night camping under the stars! Great work, Team!
