School Choice Options

Students currently attending public school must notify their resident district by the Notice Of Intent to Participate form and must file their Student Choice Application  to Vernon by November 25, 2024. The student’s Notice of Intent to Enroll must be submitted to Vernon by January 9, 2025.
