Jag News

Good afternoon Jags!

It is week 4 and we are starting Phase 1 tomorrow! For the students returning tomorrow, it will be great to see you. For the rest of our Jags, hoping to see more of you soon. All of this depends on everyone doing their part to stay safe and well during this time.

We will have a virtual Greenback Night Meet the Teacher on Tuesday, September 15. More information will be sent out next week regarding our online PTSA Welcome Back meeting and how the virtual Meet the Teacher will work.

Progress reports for the first three weeks should be viewable on the Student/Family Access portals in the next few days. Please continue to work hard and keep up with your work and attendance. When you have a question, please reach out to your teacher first as they can help you directly.

Sincerely,

Gary Comalander - Principal
