[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I work for the VA! Just so everyone knows..the VA is here and will be open. Please check ParentVue.  They sent out an email correspondence about 10 or so days ago to those who applied for this coming school year.   They are working on schedules now, so it's a good time to ask questions and get schedules finalized for Fall.  Please reach out to all the admin staff (not sure if people are upper or lower school) and the school counselors.  You will be sure to get a response! [/quote]

I knew blaming it on teacher shortages was nonsense. Those posters are always trying to make mole hills in the mountains.[/quote]

VA doesn't have teacher shortages but they are not equally staffed and don't have the same amount of administrative staff as other schools.  The school last year had over 3000 students so its equal to a high school with far fewer staff.   Remember teachers and other folks don't work summers so its not a  full staffing over the  summer.  From what I have heard, plenty of teachers willing to work in VA and when a teacher has left, they have gotten replacements  within a reasonable amount of time.  Teachers, though, are not doing the administrative work and not handling the admissions, scheduling or planning this summer.   There is one dean and two administrators for each school of approx. 1500 students.  Plus, a few other staff and that's it.  Most of the teachers are returning next year to VA.  Only a few are leaving but they did not have enough staff/teachers in the lower school.[/quote]
