Teacher Assignment for 2020-2021 School Year

Yesterday our teachers sent emails to parents to introduce themselves to their 2020-21 students and families.  The email includes teacher assignment, student schedule, how the teacher will communicate throughout the year, information about virtual student orientation as well as our Back to School Event.  

It is strongly recommended that you have your child access the grade level Google Classroom NOW with the code that was linked in the email from the teacher. The use of the classroom will be discussed at the virtual orientation on September 2 and accessing it now will help your child to be ready for the orientation.
