Reminder of the schedule for Wednesday, Oct. 7:
Elementary Schools: 2-Hour Delay - Remote & In-Person Students
Middle & High Schools: All Remote - Regular Remote Schedule
Students who are missing their friends during distance learning may appreciate the opportunity to connect through virtual extracurricular activities. @edutopia https://t.co/oANrPl9E94
