In the past, on most weeks when we did not have school on a Friday due to professional development, we had a full regular schedule day on Monday of that week. That is not the case this year. This school year, every Monday school day is an Early Release Day.

Friday, October 22nd is a staff only professional development day.

Students who did not get their photo taken by LifeTouch on September 9th or 10th should do so on Wednesday, October 20th between 7:30am-3:15pm.
