Superintendent's Monthly Message
October is National Principals Month!
Please join us in thanking our Principals for all the do!
National School Bus Safety Week
National School Bus Safety Week emphasizes the importance of stopping when school bus stop arms are displayed, reducing speeds in school zones, and avoiding distractions like cell phones while driving. These simple practices can make a significant difference in keeping our students safe.
America's Safe Schools Week
This week, we join the nation in recognizing America's Safe Schools Week. At La Vernia ISD , the safety of our students and staff is our utmost priority. We consistently review and revise our safety plans and procedures to enhance safety and security. Keeping our schools safe requires continuous work and communication with our students, staff, and community involvement.
Check out what is going on at LVISD!
October is Fentanyl Awareness Month and La Vernia ISD wants to help keep our community safe! Fentanyl is a powerful synthetic opioid that is up to 50 times stronger than heroin and 100 times stronger than morphine. Just 2 milligrams of fentanyl, equal to 10 to 15 grains of table salt, is considered a lethal dose! Share this message to protect your loved ones.
