We are proud to share this week’s recognition from the Addison Independent! Congratulations to Scout for being named a Student of the Week for the 2025–2026 school year. Scouts' dedication to community, hard work, and advocating for others has had a positive impact on our school, making her an excellent representative of VUHS.

Lots of fun was had on Friday, April 10th! Students were warmly welcomed and received tote bags filled with books, a schedule of the day’s events, and a form to help them connect with other attendees. Once completed, the form could be exchanged for a Teen Lit Mob poster.

An ensemble of students from Woodstock High School greeted everyone, followed by a student-led panel hosting a Q&A session with keynote speaker Lily Brooks-Dalton. Afterward, students had the opportunity to meet Lily for book signings and photos.

The workshop sessions began next, with students choosing from six different options offered in both morning and afternoon blocks. Lunch was provided in the library, along with the chance to browse The Yankee Bookshop’s pop-up shop, which featured titles by participating authors and selections from the 2026–2027 Green Mountain Book Award list.

Following lunch, everyone reconvened in the auditorium for a lively raffle featuring prizes donated by local businesses and a presentation of the 2026–2027 Green Mountain Book Award nominees. Students then attended their selected afternoon workshops.

The day concluded with author signings of books, tote bags, and posters, bringing a memorable experience to a close.

When: May 2, 10 AM–12 PM (ish)

Spread the word and bring a friend!

7th graders working on some team building as they start service learning projects. Challenge your student to a round or two, it's a great way to have some fun! I'd recommend stretching first...
