Have any changes to your Students end of day transportation plans?
If your student has a change to what they are doing after school (even just for a day) and they are NOT following the transportation instructions you submitted, then you MUST notify the school in one of the following ways:
1) EMAIL NCS Attendance: vais-attendance@verona.k12.wi.us
2) CALL the office at (608) 845-4500
We want to work with you to make sure that your student gets safely to where they are supposed to be after school so we abide by your instructions unless we hear differently from you. Your student’s words are not enough. We must hear from you.
Picture Day
Picture Day is Thursday, Sept. 28th, in the morning.
Please keep an eye out for more information and for a sign up to volunteer to help on picture day
