From the Principal's Desk

Dear Parents,

It is hard to believe that we are halfway through this school year. As a community, we have faced an unprecedented year, and together we are helping our students continue to learn. As we enter this second semester, I want to remind you while safety continues to be our priority, we need your help ensuring that the learning continues whether a student is on campus or at home. Attendance is important for learning to continue. If a student is out, they can still log into Schoology and complete the lessons for the day. I want to thank you for working with us to ensure the success of our students. Please reach out to the teachers if you have any questions about your child's progress or assignments. It is important for us to stay connected.

Sincerely,

Nancy Paredes
