Message from Nancy Gaiman, Principal

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.
