Registration begins on Wed. July 22. Please make the time to get online and register soon....
ps- teacher names are NOT on the registration paperwork, they will be released once we know the number of students returning to in-person and the number for remote instruction at each grade level. This will help me create balanced class lists based on those numbers so we can best meet the needs of everyone.
pps- The district plan for the return to school was released on July 21 and each individual school
specific plan (based on that district plan) will be released on July 31. The specifics will be based on the most up to date guidance available. Thank you for your patience with this process.......
I can't wait to see you all again-- and please call if you have questions or need assistance!
