Hello Parents/Guardians,
On Monday, March 30th (A day) and Tuesday (B Day), March 31st, there will be no in-person school. Students will participate in asynchronous (at-home) learning on both days, as snow make up days.
Your child’s teacher will send directions for classwork by the end of the week, along with a daily attendance form.
🔹 Important Reminders:
The attendance form must be completed each day by 2:00 PM for your child to be marked present.
Students do not need to log into any live sessions or platforms.
Students will bring their packets/work back on Monday when we return from the break but the attendance form must be filled out each day.
If you have any questions or need support, please contact your child’s teacher. All teacher email addresses are available on our school website.
If you are unable to reach your child’s teacher, please contact the school by Friday afternoon for assistance.
Thank you for your continued support!
