Stay Safe

Parent Ed:

Let's Get Social

Dear Families,

I continue to be impressed by the consistent cooperation and adherence to our safety practices and protocols. Our successful in-person instruction is very much a reflection of our community's commitment, flexibility, and collaborative spirit.

I am wishing everyone a safe and restful mid-winter break. In order to continue on our current trajectory, I would like to remind families how important it is that we all make every effort to follow current public health guidance and avoid:

If these activities cannot be avoided during the designated break (February 15 - 19), please use the following distance learning week (February 22 - 26) for any necessary testing and isolation.

Sincerely,

☞ IMPORTANT DATES ☜
