Newsletter for Parents - March 2021
DA$H is around the corner!!
Safety is our number one concern, and will continue to be during the DA$H. There have been several revisions this year, due to COVID. We have always enjoyed having parents cheer their children on, but this year parents will not be able to be in the audience. We appreciate your understanding and support to make this a safe event for all our students.
