29-31 Spring Break
1-2 Spring Break
Principal's News
Administrators and teachers have been working to create learning experiences for students in-person and online starting next week in Phase 3 as well as planning for Phase 4. Phase 4 will consist of some time in-person for content courses. Due to the structure of our schedule and transitioning between different teachers and classes in a day, students will have block period classes for longer time periods. See the Reopening timeline and below. We will share a detailed schedule prior to Spring Break recess and survey parents to see if they would like their student to remain online for the remainder of the school year.

Student and Community Covid Testing is Available
Keeping COVID cases off of our campuses will keep our in person learning possible. As a reminder, if a student or or teacher tests positive for COVID, we will need to transition that cohort back to distance learning for at least two weeks to avoid spreading the virus. Sign up at one of the following locations to begin your regular weekly testing:

We will be returning in a phased-in approach in order for students to fully learn and practice our safety protocols. Below is an outline of our return to school timeline.
Our Phase 4 schedule will consist of students attending two of their classes (period 1-4) in person each day for a block period and continuing with online instruction in the afternoon. We will send out more details about the finalized schedule next week before Spring Break. We will also give parents the option to have their student continue with online learning through June for Phase 4. Phase 4 will require minimal schedule changes and students in Connections or online learning will have some instruction with teachers and some asynchronous time just like those students who are coming in-person.
The Week of March 15-19th:
Orientation Week including a new bell schedule - Students come to school to meet their Advisory Teachers in the afternoon on Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, or Friday to learn ingress and egress points and practice safety protocols. Students will tour the campus to understand new safety protocols. Students who remain in online learning will have an online Orientation one day for 90 minutes this week.
The Week on March 22nd-26th:
This will be week 2 of Phase 3 and includes a new bell schedule. Students will come to campus every Monday for in-person learning experiences including building relationships, nurturing social and emotional wellness, safety procedures, and a whole lot of fun! Students opting for online learning will have an online Pack/Advisory every Monday.
The Week of March 29th- April 2nd:

If we are not in Phase 4, then Phase 3 in-person on Monday continues with Tuesday- Friday online learning. Students opting for online learning will have an online Pack/Advisory on Monday or content area classes online.
