Per the Governor's recent directive (8/12) we have changed language within our reopening plan regarding face coverings. The reopening plan and the "guidance on wearing masks" link within the plan have both been updated to reflect compliance with the directive.

To provide additional time for the district and families to prepare for the start of the school year, we are pushing back the 1st day of school to Thursday August 20th. The updated calendar is linked under the menu tab on the school web-page.

As we develop plans for the upcoming 2020-21 school year, we are reaching out to parents to complete a brief family survey.

The Class of 2020 will graduate on May 17, 2020 at 2:00 PM. The ceremony will be held on the football field. Chairs will be available for immediate family members. Other guests are encouraged to bring lawn chairs or blankets to sit on. Social distancing guidelines will be followed by all participants and guests. We believe that having the ceremony on the football field will allow for community participation while ensuring safety through social distancing. Anyone over the age of 65 or who is identified as vulnerable per the CDC guidelines is discouraged from attending. Following the Graduation Ceremony, please join us downtown for a celebratory parade!
