 Principal's Message:

Dear Vineyard Families,

Welcome to the 2020 – 2021 school year! Due to COVID-19, we are currently working together as a District under the direction of the county and state to determine the safest way to have students return to school. At this time, our District has chosen to have our students participate in 100% full distance learning for the safey of our students and staff members. Please continue to check our school and District website for updates. This summer, our District transitioned to a new information system, Infinite Campus. Please be sure to keep your parent portal updated with your child’s emergency contact information. If you need assistance with this process, you can contact our school office. 

Our Vineyard staff truly misses all of our students and families and can’t wait for the return of school. We are excited about our Measure H renovations that have been taking place thanks to the community supporting our school bond. The first three phases of construction included various renovations including the following: a keyless entry system for safety, new HVAC systems, new roofing, office updates, restroom renovations, and classroom renovations (music, math, language arts, and social studies classrooms). Our science classrooms, art classrooms, and parking lot are currently under construction at this time. We thank you for your understanding, flexibility, and cooperation during this process.

At Vineyard Junior High, we strive to provide our students with the best educational experiences by creating a safe, positive learning environment, by providing rigorous standards-based instruction, by using the state adopted materials, and by ensuring that the individual needs of each and every student are met. Our highly trained and qualified staff members collaborate and share best practices on a regular basis in an effort to meet the needs of all students. Student safety, academic achievement, social/emotional learning, and building character are the top priorities for our Vikings. In an effort to provide our students with a positive and safe learning environment, we are proud to say that we are a P.B.I.S. (Positive Behavioral Interventions and Supports) Gold School that also takes part in the Safe School Ambassador Program!

Keeping this in mind, it is through a strong home and school partnership that we are able to achieve such high standards and provide the best learning opportunities for our students at Vineyard. We welcome parents and family members to become involved in your child’s education in any capacity that you can. There are a variety of ways to become involved such as joining our Parent Teacher Student Association (P.T.S.A.), volunteering for special events, attending school events/assemblies, helping with your child’s homework, monitoring your child’s progress through the Infinite Campus Portal, by checking our website for upcoming events, and by checking our teacher websites for homework assignments. Vineyard Junior High School is fortunate to have such a hardworking Parent Teacher Student Association that is dedicated to supporting and enriching the learning opportunities for our students. We encourage you to become involved with the P.T.S.A. by attending the monthly meetings on the second Friday of each month.

We look forward to partnering with you to provide the best educational opportunities for your child!

Sincerely,

Sandy Rose, Principal
