High School Basketball Schedule Update: The varsity boys will play on Friday in Dalhart at 5:15p.m. -- No JV Boys game.

🎉 Attendance Matters! 🎉

Every 9 weeks, students at Vega Elementary with perfect attendance have their names entered into a drawing by grade level. If their name is selected, they get to choose a prize of their choice!

We truly appreciate families making attendance a priority. 💙

All other students who had perfect attendance or only one absence received a drink from The Grill as a reward for their great attendance! 🥤

Our Longhorn boys and girls spent the early part of the week competing in the annual Caprock Classic Tournament in Lubbock. Both teams finished strong at 2–2, gaining valuable experience, team bonding, and plenty of fun along the way. Today, they’re back on the road heading to Spearman—girls continue district play while the boys tip off their district season. Let’s go Longhorns! 🤘🏀

🎉 New year, new opportunities!

As we welcome 2026, it’s the perfect time to join the Vega ISD family—where tradition, excellence, and community come together.
