The first two full weeks into the new calendar year have been historic to say the least. As we look ahead to the inauguration and reflect on the work of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., my hope is that we find those things that unite us. During Friday's announcements I shared similar thoughts with our students and also the hope that during these historic times that we also take time to balance not only being aware of the history that's happening, but also to value the time with friends and family.
I would also hope we continue to embrace the distractions like this weekend's playoffs in order, again, to maintain balance during these times. Enjoy the playoffs this weekend or whatever you are doing to help maintain balance!
Thank You for Those that Participated in Asymptomatic Testing
Thank you to the students and staff who directly participated in the asymptomatic testing or those parents/guardians who helped transport students to the testing. The testing days are a critical piece to helping us remain open in the coming weeks and months. Thank you again!
