Good evening Mighty Red Birds,
We hope each of you enjoyed the beautiful weekend. Seeing the sunshine was amazing. Our staff is ready for a fresh new week of learning. As Mr. Hirsch and I stated in the previous News You Choose we understand that the technical difficulties with Blackboard have caused many disappointments, but are hopeful Monday will run smoothly. The updates that were put in place last week should allow enhanced security and less lag.
If we experience problems with Blackboard, please direct your child to the recorded sessions, learning packets, Channel 21, CFES website, and Google classroom. Please also access our social media sites.
