We would like to wish all of our Vernon ISD family, and our students and their families, a Happy Easter!!
Tomorrow is an Early Release Friday for Vernon ISD!! We hope the students enjoy their early start to the weekend.
Vernon ISD is lucky to have an outstanding group of paraprofessionals working at all of our campuses, and today we would like to tell them how much we appreciate all they do for the district. We are lucky to have paraprofessionals who step up wherever needed to make sure their campus runs as smoothly as possible. Thank you for all you do for our teachers and our students.
Tomorrow is the start of a new month, which means it is time for a new VISD Cafeteria menu. So, below you will find the menu for April -- the last full month of school for the 2025-26 school year.
