We have been approved to have Virtual Learning Fridays! This will begin on 10/23. In summary, attending school on Fridays is optional. Students enrolled in face-to-face instruction will have the option of completing assignments either in person or at home. Virtual students will complete assignments as normal. These assignments will be completed asynchronously, which means there will be no live instruction. No new material will be introduced. Attendance will still be taken. Please read additional information about Virtual Learning Fridays at the following link: https://tinyurl.com/yyt25zzv
