Hello VG Families & Staff,
As we conclude another week and head into the weekend I am thinking of all our students, parents, teachers and staff after the SRVUSD Board Meeting Tuesday night; as there are many unknowns at this time. I do know that our district will be working on and communicating with all of us as next steps begin to transpire. So many questions: Which students will choose to stay remote? Which students will choose to come back to campus? What about teachers & staff??? How will this all work? Since there are so many questions and details being worked on at the district level, I figure it is out of my hands at this point and once we get more information we can begin to figure out how we move forward. My motto at the moment: I will worry about the things I can control at this time.
I want you all to know that everyone should do what is best for their family and we will figure out how to make this all work! We are on this roller coaster ride TOGETHER!
The next Board Meeting is on 9/29
With Gratitude,
:) Principal Juergens
