MESSAGE FROM THE SUPERINTENDENT
Our high school and middle school teachers are ready to Zoom with you on Wednesday and get you logged into your Google Classrooms. Our elementary teachers can't wait to see you at the drive by events to pick up your Chromebooks and classroom materials. Remember to stay in your cars. Please be sure to check out your school's website for details or call your school to arrange a time if you missed the distribution day.
