End of School Year Information
Shadow Hills Families,
The Weeks of May 11, and May 18, mark the last two weeks of school. What a strange ending to a school year, to say the least!
There many questions about the next two weeks and beyond. I am going to attempt to put some organization into the last two weeks of school as it relates to Shadow Hills Elementary School and then I want to encourage you to be attentive to Boise School District communication in the coming weeks and months about the start of the 2020-2021 School Year.
