April 8th - Solar Eclipse
April 8th has been designated as a virtual asynchronous learning day. We will not have school in the building. That means that assignments will be provided by the teachers and students can complete the assignments at any time prior to the deadline given by the teacher. Assignments do not need to be completed on April 8th. Students are approved to complete them any time between the time assigned and the deadline teachers provide. Please read all information from your teachers to participate properly. Assignments completed demonstrate attendance.
