A NOTE FROM MS. GARCIA
Dear Parents,
We hope you had a wonderful Thanksgiving! With our Winter Break just around the corner, my hope is that you all are able to safely spend time with your families.
In this newsletter, you will find information about changing the remote learning option, student attendance guidelines and home access directions. Please make sure you read this important information.
Our second Remote Learning day is on Friday, December 11th. Students will work independently at home since teachers have a day for staff development and planning. There is NO LIVE instruction.
Picture day for our connect students will be on Wednesday, December 9th from 3:30 to 5:30. Connect parents will receive a link to sign up for a specific time.
Thank you all for your continued support. Have a great holiday season!
Yvette Garcia
