Scenes from today's pep rally pumping up that Lion Spirit for tonight's district game at Breckenridge.
It was "Surfs Up!" Spirit Friday today, with VHS students wearing their beach or Hawaiian attire to show their Lion Spirit. The Lions are in Breckenridge tonight to take on the Buckaroos in a district battle.
These 36 VHS students received special t-shirts and a reception in honor of them earning their CCMR point. The goal for Vernon High School is for every graduate to earn their College, Career, and Military Readiness point. Students earn their point by completing dual-credit courses; or earning a certification; or meeting TSI criteria via scores on the SAT, ACT, TSI-A, or College Prep Course in English and Math. Congratulations to these students!!! Job Well Done!!

Come on and help pump up the spirit before the Lions hit the road to take on the Breckenridge Buckaroos!
Remember it is an Early Release Friday!

Our VHS tennis team saw its fall season come to an end earlier than we wanted it to yesterday afternoon, as Lions fell to Canyon West Plains in the bi-district round of the Class 4A Team Tennis playoffs. Playing up a classification and facing tougher competition will just make you that much better for the Class 3A Team Tennis playoffs and for UIL Singles & Doubles competition that are played in the spring. Just keep on working! We're proud of all the players and coaches!!
