We have had several calls from community members asking why students are out and about when they should be quarantined or isolated. Please remember that students should be home during a quarantine or isolation period. We also have several students who have not picked up work from school. Thank you.

We have home tests available to send home with your children. I have sent out an email regarding this. If you are interested in having test sent home, please respond to the email or call Kelli at school. Thank you.
