Vernon Elementary School District #9 is a K–8 school district in Vernon, Apache County, Arizona. It operates a single K–8 school.

History

In 2019 the district established its preschool program.[2]

In 2020 its student population was above 100.[3]

Monica Baraja served as superintendent and as principal until September 2020, when she resigned. The school community did not anticipate that she would do this.[3]

From 2020 to 2021 the number of students in the district decreased by 24%.[4]

Operations

As of 2007 the school district uses volunteers to provide services that it cannot afford to have paid employees do; for example, parents volunteered as librarians.[5]
