      1) No School on October 29 and 30

      Due to Parent - Teacher Conferences occurring during the work day on October 29, and during the evening on October 28 and 29, all In-person Hybrid and Remote classes are canceled for Thursday, October 29 and Friday, October 30. 

      2) In-Person Hybrid Schedule Change 

      For the week of Parent-Teacher Conferences ONLY, we are adjusting the Green / Gold day schedule. This is because the normal Gold days, Thursday and Friday, of that week are canceled as stated above. 

      • Tuesday, October 27 will be a Green, In-person Hybrid day
      • Wednesday, October 28 will be a Gold, In-person Hybrid day

      I apologize for any inconvenience this causes. Understand this decision is made in the interest of ensuring Gold day students receive an in-person opportunity during that week. 

      That is all for now! Please let us know if you have any questions.

      Best Regards,

      Tony Karr, Principal

    • Parent/Guardian/Teacher Conferences

      It’s hard to believe we are more than halfway through the first quarter of the school year! Despite the challenges of the pandemic, it’s still vital for families to connect with their child’s teacher(s). Parent/Guardian/Teacher conferences will soon be taking place, and although they may be virtual or different than in the past, there are still some things that never change. For starters, be prepared with the questions you have for your child’s teacher(s). Second, be open and honest and share your child’s strengths and weaknesses, letting the teacher know how best to work with your student. Third, keep the lines of communication open and let your child’s teacher(s) know the best way to reach you. Ask the best way to contact them should you have questions or concerns that arise.
