First Week Back!
Students who chose the face-to-face learning option were back this week, and although some details are still being worked out, it was great to be back with students! Teachers are working incredibly hard to navigate the technological and logistical challenges that come with teaching both face-to-face and virtual students simultaneously, but we're getting there. Thank you to everyone for your cooperation, understanding, and support!

While we're all working on building new habits and routines during our face-to-face return, there are a few safety-related rules and expectations that we must follow. Families of face-to-face students, please remind and discuss with your child the importance of wearing their mask correctly (above the nose) and social distancing as much as possible. We are all in this together and want to make sure we are protecting each other!
Class Schedules
Thank you for everyone's patience as we adjusted to a new class schedule this week! As a reminder, here is our updated schedule, which is the same for both virtual and face-to-face students. Please contact your child's teachers if you have any questions or concerns about their schedule!
