If you would like for your child to remain in remote learning and not attend our hybrid learning program, please let us know as soon as possible. We have a waiting list of families that would like for their children to attend our hybrid learning program, but we are limited due to class sizes and social distancing.

As always, we thank you for your continued support this school year!

Patience, Grace, and Flexibility!
