From the Desk of Dr. G Second Semester Learning Model We need your help to continue our planning for semester 2, which starts on February 1, 2021. Our hope is to get students back into our schools as soon as we can when the situation with the virus improves. Please fill out the Second Semester Learning Model Change Request Form only if you want to switch your child's learning model selection. If you want to retain your learning model selection from the beginning of the year, no further action is required. In partnership, Brad Gustafson, Principal
