A Note from Dr. Moore
Dear Parents and Guardians,
This is definitely a time of uncharted waters. We appreciate your patience and understanding during this time. This week we have been meeting as a district and with our campus teachers to finalize our plans for next week and time beyond if needed. Students are always our main consideration when making decisions about instruction.
Please know, the school system is offering breakfast from 8:00-9:30 at Sanford for all students in the district. We miss seeing our students. We look forward to seeing them again in the near future. Please know we are here for you in any way we can provide support.
Sincerely,
Dr. Moore
