Congratulations students of the month!

Beginning September 20th, masks will be strongly encouraged and only mandated if the building reaches 5 or more positive Covid-19 cases. Each building will have an independent number to determine if masks will be required. If masks are required due to positive cases, it will be communicated through our website, email, text and a messenger call. All buses will still require masks. Communication will be frequent - please watch Facebook and our website for more information.
