Who we are

We are the Vernon Township Education Association, an inclusive local association of skilled teachers and dedicated educational support professionals.  We are active members of the Vernon community which is nestled between the historic farms and modern mountain resorts of northern New Jersey.  We are employees of the largest school district in Sussex County and represent more than 600 members.  We are a local affiliate of the NJEA (New Jersey Education Association) and the Sussex County Education Association.  We have a long history of community cooperation which supports our students in and outside of the classroom environment.  We are Vernon’s voters, coaches, taxes payers, neighbors, but most importantly Vernon’s educators.

Our Goal

Our goal is to advance and protect the rights, benefits, and interests of our members, and we are dedicated to excellence in our student’s education.  We will take a proactive partnership with our administration and community, in order to ensure the highest levels of achievement for our students.  We have also pledged to be on the forefront of the newest trends in education to promote the most comprehensive educational experience for Vernon’s students.
