Student Leadership in Action!
On August 31, Vernon’s 2026–2027 Student Board Representative, Azraelle Bases, took an important step in her leadership journey by attending the Sussex County Student Board Member Training at Lenape Valley Regional High School.
Azraelle attended the training alongside Vernon Superintendent Eveny de Mendez, joining student representatives from across Sussex County for a day focused on leadership, advocacy, communication, and understanding the important role student board representatives play in their school communities.
The session, hosted by Sussex County School Boards representative Kelly Mitchell, provided valuable guidance and insight to help student representatives prepare for the year ahead. Opportunities like this empower students to develop their leadership skills, learn how to effectively represent the voices and perspectives of their peers, and gain a deeper understanding of the role they play in contributing to their school district.
As Vernon’s Student Board Representative, Azraelle will serve as an important student voice throughout the 2026–2027 school year. We look forward to seeing her bring her ideas, perspective, and commitment to student leadership to the Vernon Township School District community.
Please join us in congratulating Azraelle Bases on this exciting leadership opportunity and wishing her a successful year as Vernon’s 2026–2027 Student Board Representative! 💙
We are proud to have Azraelle representing Vernon and look forward to all she will accomplish this year!

A warm Vernon welcome to our 25 newest teachers! 🎉
We are proud to welcome 25 new educators to the Vernon Township School District family as they begin their journey with us during New Teacher Orientation.
Each of them brings their own experiences, perspectives, passion, and commitment to making a difference in the lives of our students.
