Reimagining College

The Village School of Louisville is tangibly opening the doors to the world for our students. We are working with Beyond the States to provide high school students and their families with information about college programs in Europe. VSL can knowledgeably guide students in exploring another pathway after graduation.

Beyond the States provides access to bachelor’s and master’s programs in over 200 areas of study at nearly 900 universities across 550 European cities. Higher education is often more accessible and affordable in Europe, and Beyond the States exists to help provide resources you need to get there. Visit Beyond the States to find out more.

The Village School is a Candidate for Accreditation

VSL is excited to announce that we are a candidate for accreditation with Cognia, a forward-focused global nonprofit on a mission to improve educational opportunities for all learners. Accreditation unlocks access to resources and development opportunities that further benefit our students, teachers, and families. Additionally, accreditation and certification offer caregivers and faculty strengthened confidence and trust in VSL’s board of directors and third-party accountability. We are proud to begin this process and commit to continual review and improvement aligned with Cognia's six-year accreditation cycle, and we are eager to demonstrate the holistic and thoughtful education our existing families and students—our village—experience at VSL.
