Faculty and Staff Updates Thank you to the Aloha club for planning our Cookies and Cocoa event next Friday after school.  As a reminder, our schedules for Wednesday and Friday are switched next week with a 2:05 release time on Wednesday and 12:50 on Friday. A reminder is being sent through Seesaw to students about our wellness policy guidelines regarding snacks.  "UPDATE:  For SY 2021-2022, For health and safety reasons, no outside treats or goody bags will be accepted or distributed to students."
