We are SO EXCITED to open at full capacity starting Tuesday! We'll have over 70% of students back on site for at least 4 days per week! There are just no words to express my gratitude to our staff, families, and students for being amazing during this roller coaster ride! We are so very, very lucky!!!
Meals and Materials
Remote students should still plan to pick up meals and materials each FRIDAY at Stanton (6-7:30AM) and/or Lotus (8-10AM).
21-22 Registration and Fees--Registration opens 4/19/21
We continue to plan for in person summer school that will be open to FAR more learners than usual and for a FULL REOPEN for the fall.
The Board approved the fees for 21-22 with no increases. You'll remember that NO fees were charged this year due to the craziness of the year. More information about the registration process coming soon. Fee information is as follows:

IAR Testing
We are moving IAR and ACCESS testing to as late in the school year as possible to maximize learning time. While we are required to give a good faith effort to the assessments, we will not stress out about make ups, nor will we test full remote students.
