Mrs. Hudson and the NACA Counselors have been meeting and working with the home buildings to share rosters of students who are being redistricted. NACA students will have the same opportunity as students in-person to participate in redistricting activities.

Teachers will be contacting families with days and times and more information about the activities. These activities are not required and are optional to attend. Listed below are PFA dates and links that all redistricting families are encouraged to join as each building welcomes their new students and families. Additional communication welcoming students and families will be sent from the building principals in the coming weeks.
