Mt. Vernon Parents:

In 2011, Mt. Vernon changed the school times putting the elementary students on the “early” schedule and the secondary students on the “later” schedule.  The School Board is committed to studying this change for a several year period in order to assess strengths and weaknesses of this change.  As we near the end of the second school year with the new times, we ask you to please share your opinions about the change in school times.  This survey is not about the balanced calendar, but is about the daily school times.  Please click HERE to learn more about the survey.
