Shive Elementary

Our teachers work hard to ensure that Vernon students are challenged in the classroom. Our parents are great about encouraging that same hard work at home. However, at the end of the day, we want to be sure that every single student has the tools to study independently as well. It's so easy nowadays for young men and women to become overwhelmed by academic expectations, but we can proactively help ease that stress while simultaneously encouraging the crucial skill of studying effectively. To that end, we strongly encourage all parents and students to take a look at the following studying strategies from the  University of Texas at Austin's Sanger Learner Center. There's a wealth of information here,  and there's definitely something for everyone!
