Dear Parents,
I hope all is well with you and your families.
To plan for required social distancing and the health and safety of our school community, we have developed two learning models: Full Remote Learning Model, students will remain at home and learn remotely five days a week and Hybrid Model students will have a combination of in person learning and remote learning.
In order to plan for the reopening, a Parent Survey will be emailed to you on Tuesday, July 29. Please complete the survey by Monday, August 3.
Prior to the beginning of the 2020-2021 school year, please make sure your child has a physical and all immunizations are up to date. Thank you for your cooperation.
Again, thank you and God Bless.
Mrs. Stefanini, Principal
