Staff Thank You Notes
Take a moment during Conference Week to Thank a Staff Member at Vernfield. There will be a table set up with notecards and bags for teachers and staff members. This is a great way to show your appreciation to our wonderful staff this holiday season.
If you have a virtual conference or are short on time, you can use our online form for your Thank You Note and the Hospitality Committee will print your note by the first week in December.
