A District Update About Our Gifted Screener
In compliance with the Pennsylvania School Code (Chapter 16) the district conducts ongoing gifted screening activities using the MAP assessment which is administered three times a year. Screening activities are conducted in grades 4 and 5 using the Fall MAP administration scores, and in grades 2 and 3 using the Winter MAP administration scores. If your child meets the criteria to move to the next round of screening, you will be notified by the school counselor.
A Note from the Attendance Desk
Thank you for using the attendvf@soudertonsd.org for all of your absence and transportation updates. It helps our communication when the classroom teacher is also included in those emails.

November Pod Parents Needed
📣 Calling all Vernfield parents! We need YOU!
We’re looking for parent volunteers to help with our Pod Parents program! ❤️
Pod Parents lend a helping hand to our amazing teachers by taking care of some of the behind-the-scenes administrative tasks that help keep their classrooms running smoothly. This might include photocopying, laminating, cutting out projects, and other little tasks that make a BIG difference!
It’s a great way to support our teachers, give them a little extra time back in their day, and get involved at school!
Interested in volunteering? We would LOVE to have you! Every helping hand makes a difference! 🍎✂️. Use this form to sign up: HERE
School Spirit Store Now Open!
The school store is open
HERE until 11/15/26 so we can have the items back in time for the holidays. If anyone wants to get something as a gift I can put is aside so it isn’t sent home with their student. If you have any questions please reach out to Lisa Springart at 267-640-5966. Texting preferred or you can email lnj11808@gmail.com

Calling all Vernfield 3rd, 4th, and 5th graders!
The Vernfield HSA invites you to the Sr. Hawks Glow Night on Friday, November 13th, from 6:30 to 8:00 pm in the school gym. DJ Gerry will be keeping the dance floor going all night, along with glow art and gym games. We’ll have snacks for all the students, too. It’s going to be a fun night to celebrate our Sr. Hawks, and we’d love for your student to join us.
Registration is required, so please save your spot here: REGISTRATION
You’ll find more details in the attached flyer.
A quick note: this event is just for our 3rd through 5th graders, so we kindly ask that siblings stay home. Every student must be accompanied by a responsible adult, as this is not a drop-off event.
We’d also love some extra hands to help the night run smoothly. If you’re able to volunteer, you can sign up here: VOLUNTEER SIGN UP
Questions? Please reach out to Lauren McShea at lauren.mcshea@gmail.com or 215-237-8108.
