There is no school tomorrow, Friday, April 3, in observance of Good Friday. 🗓️ We also want to share an important update about next week. Monday, April 6, will now be a regular school day for students. This day was first planned as a staff development day but has been changed to make up for lost learning time during January’s ice storm. We appreciate your flexibility. Thank you for your support.
