Our son Jake Alfredson is going to be a Senior this year at VHS.  We are so proud of him as he considers his future goals, one of which was, by adding the "Marine Biology" course to his resume.  He attended the program at "Marine Lab" in the Florida Keys over the summer.  He was able to become a certified diver and received an "A" for the course.  Keep up the good work during your Senior Year Jake!!! Yeah Class of 2011
