SCHEDULE CHANGE
If your child is in Mrs. Akin's homeroom, refer to the updated schedule below or go to our class website.
Ms. France's homeroom has a similar schedule. The main difference is that these students have ELA and Social Studies first thing in the morning. Also, Ms. France's homeroom has different days for their Specials. Everything else is the same for both classes.
