2nd grade had such a great day on their field trip today.
Students in Mrs. Shook's class have been learning about the butterfly life cycle. We have watched in our classroom as they went from caterpillars to in their chrysalis and finally butterflies. This morning, we were able to take them outside to release. 🦋
Playground too wet? No problem! Jump rope, sidewalk chalk, and drawing under the pavilion. We are so blessed to have a dry place to play outside after our final day of MAP testing.

CoxHealth Mobile is scheduled to be here at school on Thurs May 8th for sports/band physicals. If there are not at least 10 signed up (with paperwork) then they will not come to our school. We need to have the numbers by Wed. The cost is $25 which is standard, but the benefit is the convenience of being here on campus. Exceptions can be made for financial hardships. It is required for all athletes Grade 6 and up starting next year. Contact Nurse Shara for more information!!

🍎 Happy School Lunch Hero Day! 🥪
Today, we pause to celebrate the real heroes behind the scenes — our amazing Verona School District Kitchen Staff! 💛
From the early morning hours to the last clean tray, these dedicated professionals work tirelessly to ensure every student is nourished, cared for, and ready to learn. Whether it's preparing delicious meals, accommodating special dietary needs, or offering a kind word and a warm smile in the lunch line, our food service team plays an essential role in the success of our students.
Their work goes far beyond cooking and serving — they fuel our learners with the energy they need to thrive in the classroom and beyond. They’re champions of student wellness, masters of multitasking, and a source of daily kindness and encouragement for every child who walks through the cafeteria doors.
🍽️ Thank you to our school lunch heroes for your unwavering commitment, compassion, and care. We see you, we appreciate you, and we are grateful every single day for the incredible work you do for the Verona community.
👏 You are true heroes — today and every day!

Due to the school cancellation caused by a power outage, the Verona Bands Spring Concert and Awards Ceremony has been rescheduled to Thursday, May 8th at 6:00 PM in the new gym.
We hope everyone is safe and doing well, and we’re looking forward to seeing you all next week for a great evening of music and celebration! Thank you for your understanding, and we hope you can join us on the new date!
Softball game has been cancelled for tonight.
Please take a moment to read an important letter from our Superintendent, Mrs. Melody Whitehead, addressing the recent emergency response and power outage.
Sadly, Verona schools will not have power tomorrow Thursday May 1, 2025. There will be no school, this is not an AMI day. Be prepared to work hard on Monday to catch up on the work missed.
While Liberty is working tirelessly, they cannot give us a 100% guarantee power will be back up by morning. So, the decision whether to have school tomorrow will be made early in the morning. Unless power comes back sooner. Stay tuned Cats.
