A note from Matt
Dear High School Staff,
The 2019-2020 school year is quickly approaching. I am excited and looking forward to your return. As we move forward I know that we will continue to come together to ensure we each get what we need and have the support to get through this difficult time. I encourage each of you to reach out to your support systems at home and here at school if you need anything. Together we will all work through this difficult time by doing what we do best and that is coming together in support of each other. Please continue to take care of yourself and your colleagues. I also ask that you continue to keep Alex’s family and the Gananda community in your thoughts and prayers during this difficult time. If you need anything, please do not hesitate to reach out.
Please take a few moments to read the information below and contact me if you have any questions, comments or concerns.
