A Message from Mr. Mike
Dear Parents/Guardians of Advisory Students:
Starting today (February 4th) I will be out on medical leave for a period of 2-3 months. I’m scheduled for replacement of my right hip and following the surgery on Monday I will be in recovery and physical therapy. Ms. Jen has arranged for Stacey Ceniceros to be my sub for the time I will be out. Stacey has been a sub in the past for myself and other teachers at JDAL. Stacey’s email is saceniceros@gbaps.org.
If you have any questions please contact our Principal, Ms. Jen.
-Mr. Mike
Best of luck to you Mr. Mike. We wish you a speedy recovery!
