It's the first school day of a new month and that means a new cafeteria menu is out!! Here's the November cafeteria menu for our VISD campuses. Please remember ALL of our students receive a free breakfast and lunch at all of our campuses.
Vernon ISD's phone system is currently down. We cannot receive calls or call out. Technicians are working on the issue and we hope to have service restored soon. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause.
Before you go to bed tonight be sure and move your clocks back an hour, as Daylight Savings Time ends tomorrow. We're looking forward to earlier sunrises so there is more light when our students are catching buses and arriving at campuses. We look forward to seeing everyone Monday morning!!
Our VMS football teams hosted their counterparts from Boyd last night at Leo Brittain Field at Lion Stadium, and both the 7th grade and 8th grade team picked up victories.

Brazos Eakin scored three rushing touchdowns of 57 yards, 24 yards and 1 yard, while Ryker Wilson added a 24-yard TD on the ground. Wilson also helped lead the defense with a fumble recovery, while Nehemiah Lin returned another fumble 42 yards for touchdown.
The 8th grade team picked up a 32-16 victory to improve their record to 3-4 for the year. Jakaiden White scored on a 14-yard run and also hit Isaiah Boyd with a 5-yard touchdown pass, and he returned an interception 92 yards for a defensive score. Arion McCoy also had a 39-yard touchdown run.

Tomorrow the theme for the Lions Football Pep Rally is "Pink Out" and our VHS cheerleaders would like to invite those who are currently fighting breast cancer; breast cancer survivors; and those who have lost family members to breast cancer to be their special guests at the pep rally. There will be a designated section reserved for our special guests. The pep rally will begin tomorrow at 3:25 p.m.
Next week is National Red Ribbon Week and we have daily themes as we hope all of our students -- Make A Difference. Be A Hero. Stay Drug Free. Check out the daily themes below. A quick reminder that Friday, Oct. 30 is a teacher/staff work day for Vernon ISD with students out of school that day.
