Governing Board

The ultimate purpose of education is to help students become effective citizens in our democracy. Our governing board partners with us to ensure that all students at Vernon participate in and learn about reading, writing, arithmetic, research, respect, responsibility, rights, reasoning, reflecting, and the arts.

The individuals on our school board are elected community members who volunteer their time for the benefit of our school district and the students who attend our school. They assist the district in planning, budgeting, and implementing school programs and help ensure fiscal responsibility.

Public Notices

We welcome the pubic to attend our regular board meetings. Meeting are held on the second Tuesday of the month at 5:30 p.m. unless otherwise posted. Our regular meetings will be held in the school library. To keep the public informed as to the governing board agenda we post all public notices and agendas outside the school (one is located by the main doors of the school; the other is located in the display box in next to the driveway exit). The public may also view all board meeting agendas and minutes by visiting our website.
