Anonymous Reporting
Vernon ISD is committed to the safety of our students and want them, along with the community, to feel comfortable with reporting any concerns they may have. We are now using a program called Stop It which allows anyone to make an anonymous report about a variety of situations including bullying, drugs, vaping, violence, self-harm, threats, and so much more!
If you, or someone you know, would like to make a report, they can do so by going to https://appweb.stopitsolutions.com/login. They will search for Vernon ISD and then choose the campus. The report is completely anonymous.
Congratulations to our students of the week for November 7th - 11th!

Happy Thursday Everyone. I just wanted to touch base on a few things. Students do not have school tomorrow due to professional development. Monday is Halloween. At the middle school we do not permit costumes or candy to be passed out. I do encourage student to wear orange/black or even a halloween themed t-shirt if they would like. The shirt must be school appropriate. Thank you all for supporting VMS.
Congratulations to our students of the week!
