Welcome
to the James H. Vernon School. As the only public school
for grades 3-6 in our community, we are proud of the
comprehensive experience and services we provide.
Our
curricular and co-curricular programs are designed to meet the
needs of all children. In a warm and safe environment we
challenge each and every child in a way that is tailored to
their learning needs. Our instruction is varied, and
reflects the research on brain development and learning
patterns. We offer a challenge to all levels of ability,
and provide the individual support necessary through programs
for the gifted, and support services for others. Out
teachers participate in ongoing training which sharpens their
skills and expands their fund of knowledge.
Our mission statement also reflects our dedication to the
personal and social needs of our children. These needs are
evidenced in character education, extensive "special" programs
and curricula, and a highly effective support staff.
Through individual and group support services we nurture each
child in ways that are unique and focused.
We are proud of the excellent teaching staff at Vernon, not
only because of their high level of training and expertise, but
for their dedication to the success of each and every child.
Teachers are very available for extra help, formal and informal
conferences with parents, and they provide regular communication
with the home.
I invite you to visit our school, and to witness first hand
the atmosphere and programs that make James H. Vernon School
such a unique and wonderful place for children. |
