PRESIDENT'S MESSAGE

This week we welcomed Dr. Diana Greene, Superintendent of Duval County Public Schools. Dr. Greene spoke to us of the challenges they have faced with Covid-19 related guidelines from the CDC and the new policies and steps they have taken to ensure student and staff safety. DCPS has implemented desk shields, face mask requirements, hybrid schedules and many more precautions and procedures in preparation for the new school year.
