Virtual Hand Raises

Hello Students and Parents!

We hope you are all well and feeling healthy. We have approached a new era and these are trying times for us. As you know, we have abruptly begun virtual learning which is new for us all. I know it's not easy learning from home so, if any of you are having difficulty finding an assignment or logging into I-ready or Readworks, please email. We will do our best to help in any way possible in a timely manner. Although this past week has been a challenge, we hope you are all enjoying quality time with your family. We hope to see each of your smiling faces very soon!

Love,

Mrs. Bosch, Ms. Spitz, & Miss Merkle
