Remote Learning: Part 2

Hi students and families,
Welcome back to Part 2 of Remote Learning. Each school distributed chromebook computers for families who do not have computer access. All students should be doing work posted in Google Classroom and turn in assignments before they are due. Please contact myself or your teachers if you have any questions about the schoolwork or if there are any issues accessing the assignments. 

We are all here for you and hope that you all stay safe, healthy, and happy.
