Dear Parents and Guardians
Administration has requested all grade level certified staff to work together in close collaboration with each grade level teacher as well as with Special Education teachers to provide the best education learning experience for all our students at each grade level. You will be able to find your child's assigned work as well as links to thier videos as a means of direct instruction.
