I wanted to share a video on PPE-Personal Protective Equipment. Some kids cower at people in scrubs, let alone all dolled up in the necessary equipment. This video briefly explains that although these people look scary, they are there to help you. Underneath, it's a person just like Nurse Jenna! (highlight the link below and right click)

Today we distributed hard copy assignments at all of our pick up locations.Each student received at least three weeks worth of assignments. This will be our last hard copy distribution unless the school closure gets extended by the Governor.
Students may turn in hard copies, and lunches will be distributed, each Wednesday in April at our three pick up locations from 11:30 am - 12:30 pm.
Please remember - students are expected to complete and turn in assignments, either on-line or hard copies. At this point we anticipate grades being assigned as normal at the end of the school year.
Please feel free to reach out to the teachers through email to get answers to any questions or concerns you may have. You may also leave a phone message for teachers or administrators at their extensions.
