Welcome back All!
Happy 2026. The second half of the year has started. This month will be busy as we get back into out routines. There will be several breaks during the next 2 months so make sure to keep up with your work and get any help you need immediately. Do let it wait.
As we start the new year, I want to remind you to be thoughtful of others as we all navigate this year. There are a lot of people on our campus that are here for you. If you need to talk or share something, talk to me or another trusted adult, we can help.
