In Case You Missed It
The link to the 2021-2022 Vernfield "Subscribed" Calendar is below. This is an easy way to keep up to date with events and days off at Vernfield without hand-entering them!
Please keep in mind that this is a subscribed calendar maintained by Home & School. Every effort will be made to keep it up-to-date, but the Vernfield printed and online calendar (Vernfield website) are the official school calendars. The subscribed calendar includes the dates of events most relevant to all families; grade-specific events and activities are not included.
If you click on the link, many applications will just open it correctly. If it doesn't open automatically, look up how to add a 'subscribed calendar' (iCal format) for your calendar app.
If you have any questions, please contact Mandy Merrill at amhansen@gmail.com
Vernfield Volunteer Opportunities
In the next couple of weeks, be on the lookout for the "Hands Across the District" survey, where you can choose from a variety of volunteer opportunities at Vernfield. We will also be providing information for new Vernfield families on how to obtain security clearances, which will be needed in order to volunteer in the school.
