Vermilion Local

The mission statement of the Vermilion Local School District is “Inspiring Leaders and Lifelong Learners”. The Vermilion Local School District is working toward alignment with national Common Core State Standards in Mathematics, English Language Arts, and Literacy in History/Social Studies, Science, and Technical Subjects as well as the Ohio Revised Standards in all other curricular areas. Twenty-First Century learning requires deep understanding and effective use of content for real-world purpose, problem solving, frequent research and writing, as well as effective communication for authentic audiences. Students deserve to deeply understand content and to understand why and how information, technology, and inspiration are used to understand and thrive in the global world. To that end, the Vermilion teaching staff purposefully designs units of instruction. Well before instruction begins, the desired results for teaching and learning are purposefully designed, assessments are aligned, and it is clearly understood how students may demonstrate evidence of learning.
