Principal's Update
October 2020
Dear Students & Families,
We are entering our 2nd month of Remote Learning 2.0 or HVA. It feels like we are starting to hit our stride and refine our work to provide the highest level of education possible. This week we will be sending out a survey to students through their English classes to get feedback on how things are going. The survey should only take about 10 minutes, so we ask that you take your time to do it well. The more information we have the better we can serve students. We will probably send out a parent survey sometime soon as well. If you have input for specific classes, I encourage you to email the teacher.
Go Hawks!
Sincerely,
Mr. Schoonover
