Update 10-27-2020

Planning for the Second Semester (January 25-June 11) 

The second semester of school is scheduled for January 25-June 11.  We are planning for the possibility that some families may want to change from either the "in person" or  the "virtual" learning option.  Families will be given that opportunity to keep or change either method for the second semester.  If the family wants to keep your child's current method of school, then no action will be needed.  For parents who want a change in placement, the "Change In Registration" form will be available November 23 - December 4.  This timeline is needed to finalize the class schedules and staffing plans to be adjusted if needed for the second half of the school year.  

 

Davis Middle School Update

Davis Middle School will resume with in-person learning on Thursday, October 29.   Overall the virtual learning is going well.   Staff members are eager to have the students back in person this Thursday.      

 

Internet Connectivity  

Each school has a staff person designated to help families “get connected” to the internet.   The goal is for all students to have reliable internet service.  Below is the contact information for each school:
