The district office is still working to get the parent communication portion- Rooms (replaces Class Dojo) of the new Apptegy program they purchased for schools to utilize this school year set up.
Until they have this resolved, please check your child's agenda daily like always and email teachers as needed. Our South teachers are ready to roll out Rooms communication to you as soon as they are given access by our district IT department.
Also, lunch calendars were sent home in agendas today and reminders for fall photo day on Friday, Aug. 23rd were sent home in agendas yesterday.
