Vinemont Elementary School recently was recognized as an Alabama High Flying School. The criteria talks about teacher's working hard and having high expectations, it talks about community support, but the important part is the following:
*Poverty Level above 48.9%
*Spending less than $2000 per pupil of sales tax
****HAVING STUDENTS SCORE IN THE PROFICIENT CATEGORY AT 120% OF THE STATE LEVEL OF PROFICIENCY SCHOOLWIDE. WE DID THAT WITH OUR ELA SCORES LAST YEAR!
*WE WERE THE ONLY SCHOOL IN CULLMAN COUNTY OR SURROUNDING COUNTIES TO RECEIVE THIS RECOGNITION.
All Cullman County School Campuses will dismiss at 1pm Thursday 2/17/22 in advance of the expected severe weather.
Happy National School Counselor Week to our very own Mrs. Willoughby! We are so grateful for you! Thank you for all you do for our students and staff here at VES!
Cullman County Schools will transition to remote learning Thursday 1/20 and Friday 1/21. At this time, we plan to return to in-classroom instruction on Monday, 1/24.
Statement from Dr. Barnette, Cullman County School Superintendent
"I had hoped the numbers would get better this week, but unfortunately, we have a lot of students and staff out today. We've been strategic, shifting staff from other schools and the Central Office to cover absences with a goal of sustaining in-person learning, but we have reached a point that we need to transition to remote learning. With that in mind, along with the potential for winter weather Thursday and Friday, all Cullman County Schools will be operating remotely the rest of the week. Your child will be sent home with work for the next two days. Weather permitting, faculty and staff who are healthy will be on campus and able to assist your child digitally. Please know that I firmly believe that there is no equivalent substitute for in-person learning. I want our children in the classroom. I hope we will see improvement by next week."
