Vernonia School District

The Vernonia School District is a public school district that serves students in the communities of Vernonia and Mist in the U.S. state of Oregon. Vernonia Elementary School, Vernonia Middle School, and Vernonia High School are contained in separate wings of a single building in Vernonia constructed on high ground after floods in 1996 and 2007 severely impacted the city.[1] The new building was built above the floodplain to prevent future flooding.[1][2]
