📢Rooms- Important Information!
We are excited to be rolling out this new communications tool for the 26-27 school year, but please be aware that as we transition to this tool, you will still be receiving information from your student's school and teacher via email. For families new to our district, updates to student emails are still happening, and as we finalize those updates, parents will begin to receive the Rooms alerts. No action is needed from you at this time.
Our goal is to keep our families informed and connected, and we appreciate your patience and understanding as we work to get everything finalized. Thank you
Happy 1st Day of School to K, 6th & 9th graders! 📔📖
We hope you have a fantastic year!
