Dismissal Extended
Parents,
The governor announced that our school closure will continue until May 1st.
The packet that parents picked up previously only had lessons through this Friday, March 27th. We will need to send additional school work home. We will have another pick-up this week on Friday, 3/27. The times will be like last time. You can come from 7:30-9:30 am, 11:30am-1:30pm, or 3:30-5:30pm. Also, if your student checked out a Quest library book before this school closure, please return the library book when you pick-up your students’ school work.
