On behalf of the entire town of Vernon I would like to thank Mr. Johnston for donating 100 pairs of shoes to our school. Mr. Johnston has made a great sacrifice in giving us these shoes. We have gone through hardship and rations and must appreciate the blessing that has been given to us. Our children and staff thank you. Please help yourself to our amenities in or around the school. Once again thank you.
