In so many ways, this is an amazing time of the year. Somedays it seems we are seeing COVID more and more from the rearview mirror; other days COVID remains all around us. Please continue daily health screenings, physical distancing in the hallways and classrooms, and keeping the mask on while in school.
Also-if your child is not feeling well, please keep them home.
Monday is a virtual day. All work will be posted in the Google Classrooms.
