Out of an abundance of caution, the entire school will be closed for the remainder of this week. During this time, all classrooms and common areas will undergo a thorough deep cleaning and sanitization process before students return. All students will be engaged in asynchronous learning during this period. School will resume in person on Monday, September 29, 2025. We understand that this change may cause adjustments at home and appreciate your support as we prioritize the health and safety of our students and staff.9/23/2025 12:55:53 PM
