We hope everyone has had a great 2 days of school. As we get back into the swing of things, please notice the two quick reminders below. Our start time is 7:45 a.m., so students arriving after 7:50 a.m. will be marked as tardy. If your child takes advantage of the free breakfast the district offers all students, please have them here a little earlier than our start time.
ALSO, our Pre-K students do not eat breakfast right when they arrive. Instead, our Pre-K classes enjoy breakfast together a bit later. This helps create a calm, relaxed atmosphere where we can give them extra help and attention.
Thank you for your help in keeping us on track and getting our days started off in the right direction.

Vernon ISD is kicking off year two of our Dudes on Duty volunteer program — and we need your help to spread the word!
We’re looking for dads, husbands, grandfathers, uncles, church friends, and other positive male role models to spend time with our students during morning drop-off and lunch/recess. Just showing up, engaging with students, and offering a friendly presence can make a huge difference in creating a safe and welcoming environment.
All campuses are participating — and whether or not they have kids in our district, all men are welcome — however, they must be an APPROVED VOLUNTEER!
📝 VISD Volunteer application found here: https://bit.ly/VISDVolunteerApplication
✅ If you know of an already approved volunteer, here are the links for each campus with available dates and areas to serve:

Let’s work together to connect the men in our lives with the kids who need them most! ❤️🦁

We have some wonderful PTOs at our campuses. Children do better in school when they see their parents involved and interested in what they are doing.

VHS sophomores, juniors and seniors, if you have your ID badge from last year, please make sure you wear it tomorrow when we begin the 2025-26 school year. After we see who still has their badge, we will make a list of those students who need a new badge. Freshmen, we will issue ID badges later. We're looking forward to seeing EVERYONE -- whether you have a badge or not -- tomorrow!!
