Due to a recent law, school counselors, just like school nurses, must now have parental consent before providing routine counseling services to students. Our school counselors have a form we are asking all parents to fill out and return to their child's school. Students at Vernon Middle School and Vernon High School should have brought their form home yesterday (Monday), while students at Vernon Elementary and T.G. McCord Elementary will be bringing their form home today. Parents, PLEASE complete the form and return it to the school as soon as possible.


Named VMS Students of the Week for last week were: 6th Grade -- Halle Morris & Elias Garcia; 7th Grade -- Sadie Jones & Beckett Bayer; 8th Grade -- Naveah Castillo & Trent Kenerly. Congratulations!! Keep up the great work!!


Tomorrow is our first Early Release Day of the 2025-26 school year. Here are the early release time for each campus. Please note lunch is provided at VHS after the last bell rings -- from 12:18 p.m. to 12:48 p.m. -- and buses do not run at VHS until 12:48 p.m.


A new state law now requires schools to have written parental consent before providing some non-emergency health care services to students. VISD's school nurses want to provide students with the health care they need -- when they need it -- but must also stay in compliance with state law. Consent forms will be sent home with students this week. We urge parents to review and complete the consent forms and bring the forms back to your child's school.
Please know emergency care will be provided when necessary, as allowed by law and district policy.

There has been a change to the VISD 2025-26 school calendar. Due to a scheduling conflict for the Prosper football stadium, the Lions' football game scheduled for Friday, Sept. 19, in Prosper has been moved to Thursday, Sept. 18. The district had an early release scheduled for that Friday and it has now been moved to Thursday, to coincide with the game change. Friday, Sept. 19, will now be a regular, full school day.


All VISD students, teachers and staff are enjoying this Monday Labor Day holiday, but we will be back in school tomorrow and we will be in a new month, as today is September 1. A new month means a new school cafeteria menu! Check out the September cafeteria menu below.


Our 7th Grade Band students have hit the ground running and have begun rehearsing songs for our fall semester performances, as well as music they will perform alongside the high school band later in the football season! We are proud of their hard work and can't wait to see them shine this school year!
