4 Days In-Person

The Board voted to keep the status quo (Wednesdays virtual) and revisit at the March 8 Board meeting. They hope to see plans from administration of what five days per week of in-person instruction would look like at the start of the fourth quarter (March 15), while still maintaining a robust learning experience for our all virtual students.

We will continue to keep you posted with any changes.
