WEEKLY COMMUNITY COVID DASHBOARD
Below is this week's update.
During the school week of March 29-April 1, we had 63 students who attended classes online rather than in-person, due to post-travel precautions. These are not reflected on the data chart, because they were not due to confirmed close contact or symptoms. We appreciate everyone's cooperation and caution around spring break.

Quick Schedule Update - Wednesday, April 7
Next Wednesday, April 7, the entire student body will complete the ISACS survey during the Afternoon PRT (2:50-3:05).
April 7 is a Day 1, so students will stay in their Period 3 classes to complete their surveys at the end of the school day. The survey should take about 15 minutes to complete, so this may delay the usual time they exit the building. We are so grateful for your input and cooperation during this important survey process!
