WELLNESS AT HOME
Hello Students,
We all miss you, and hope are you doing well! We are now in the second week of distance learning and hope you are logging into your learning opportunities. We understand that many may still feel unsure and confused on where to start. Please reach out to your teachers, counselors, and other staff for support. We are ready and happy to help! Remember, it is also just as important to relax and do things you enjoy throughout the day. Read the tips and resources below for more information.
Take care of yourselves. We are thinking of you!
