VCS Alumni Connections – Our Past, Our Present, Their Future
The first school in the village of Victor opened in 1816 and served 50 students. (https://www.victorschools.org/community/alumni/history-of-vcs)
Our community has grown and our class of 2020 had 334 graduates. Our VCSEF Alumni Connections Committee enjoys staying connected with our amazing alumni community so we can continue to support current students that sit in the desks and classrooms we all fondly remember.
