During November, we pause to give thanks. As we count our blessings, we have your children and your families at the top of our lists! Thank you for allowing us to share in your child's educational experience here at Vernon Township High School. It is a true honor watching them grow into gifted young women and men.

If there is anything we can do to assist you as we move forward, please do not hesitate to ask.

With Sincere Thanks,

Pauline F. Anderson, Nicholas M. Demsak and Jacquelyn M. Van Orden

At Vernon Township High School, we will continue to focus on the New Jersey Social and Emotional Learning Competencies and Sub-Competencies during the 2019-2020 school year.

In conjunction with the Vernon Township Police Department and the Vernon Township Board of Education, we are proud to continue our new Safe Driving Initiative for the 2019-2020 school year.

Our final presentation for the 2019-2020 school year will be held in February for all student drivers who neglected to attend one of the three presentations offered during the summer and early fall.

This will be the final opportunity to attend a Share the Keys presentation for the current school year. Once each student driver and a parent/guardian have attended a presentation, they will receive a certificate, which must be presented when applying for a VTHS parking pass.The final presentation date and time will be announced shortly!

Student safety is of our utmost concern and students driving on campus poses potential hazards to our students, staff, and visitors.

We believe that attending this program with your child will help instill a sense of importance and responsibility that comes with sitting behind the wheel, whether driving to campus or anywhere else.

Thank you for your anticipated cooperation!

Come out and support this "new" event sponsored by the sophomore class for a night of great music, dancing and food with your friends.

This is more like a dance than a "formal." There is no need to buy fancy dresses or wear a suit! Wear your holiday best and have a fun night out at Vernon Township High School.

See the flyer below for more information.

Please consider nominating an educator (GEOY) or an Educational Services Professional (ESP) by using the form below.

The deadline is Friday, December 6th.

Thank you!

The first one is about a fundraiser to help our VTHS SCA.

The second one is about our yearly Giving Tree to help Vernon families in need.

Thank you!

"The holiday season is a perfect time to reflect on our blessings

and seek out ways to make life better for those around us."
