Vernon Elementary School is a public Kindergarten to Sixth grade school in Vernon, Vermont.

Staffed by one of the most educated and experiences staffs in Southern Vermont, Vernon prides itself in the education afforded to our students.  With small classes and dedicated teachers, Vernon works to educate each student to their own needs.

Working along side the classroom teachers are para-educators, most of whom have been with us over 15 years.  In addition to the classroom teachers, Vernon has 5 highly qualified specialists teaching physical education, library and media skills, art, music, and computer technology.

In an effort to answer questions that parents, students and community members may have in regards to the drinking water at Vernon Elementary School; school nurse Karen Barrett, Recreation Department Director Seth Deyo and I have met with Dr. Bill Irwin the Radiological Health Chief of the Vermont Department of Health. This meeting was helpful and extremely informative. The water at Vernon Elementary School is tested every week by the VT Department of Health and every test has shown absolutely no traces of tritium or any other foreign substance. In fact, the results of every test at Vernon Elementary School are published on the Vermont Department of Health website. Also on this website is a link for you to ask questions. All questions and inquiries whether general or specific will be answered. Aside from the water at our school, the air is continuously monitored, and the soil and grass is also tested. I hope this information has been helpful.
