3rd 9 weeks Changes
I know that many students are experiencing more change this third 9 weeks as a result of parent choice, or a school based decision. We understand that consistency for both students and the adults is ideal, but this year continues to present challenges and the need for adjustments each 9 weeks. Thank you for being a positive voice for your children even when change is hard. We are making every decision with careful attention and care for the needs of each student. This 9 weeks we have an additional 85+ students returning in person. We appreciate your confidence in our campus safety procedures and are excited to welcome back new faces in January. Please reach out if your child is struggling either in person or remote so that we may problem solve the best solution. We will make this year a success, as we all work together in the best interest of your children.
