A New Resource for Information
Since the start of the COVID-19 pandemic, we've kept you up-to-date through special announcements and through the weekly newsletters from your school. In order to offer staff and families a more regular flow of information, we will share news and information from the district with you every other Wednesday via our new biweekly e-newsletter, "District News." 
There will be times when we have to send you a special announcement outside of this schedule, but we hope that offering information on this regular schedule will be helpful for all. 
Thank you for supporting one another and our school community!
