The Greater Victoria School District has Adopted a Village!

Victoria High School has challenged its student body to raise $8,500.00 towards a school building project in Ecuador.  The Leadership class will be holding a silent auction for the students at Vic High in the new year and any donations of services or goods that families may have to offer toward this silent auction would be greatly appreciated. 

If you or your family have something to offer for the auction or would prefer to make a cash donation toward our goal, please contact Ms McTavish at Vic High, 250 388-5456 extension 104.

Welcome to the Vic High Voice: the freshest look at student thought. This paper is not only designed to express student opinion, but it gives many the opportunity to develop their talents.

Currently, a wide range of unique individuals are working on this project. Being the first student newspaper in five years, it gives students a say in their own individual way.

Some who are involved have amazing artistic ability; ranging from poetry to photography. Others have a journalistic flaire where they can take an issue and give it new life. Still many have a technological or analytical edge. They can design a website or edit columns in a flash.

This creative representation of the student body is just one of the many reasons why this newspaper is such a success.

If you want to be amazed at what vision and hardwork can accomplish, look no further than The Vic High Voice.

Extra! Extra!  Read the April Edition.

Vic High now uses BCESIS for attendance record keeping.  Teachers can login here.
