School News and Information
If you were not able to come today. We will be staffed on Wednesday from 9:00 am - 12:00 pm to pick up any medication, devices or work. We are also in the building to answer any questions you may have. Kindergarten and 1st grade students would need paper copies. Students in 2nd Grade thru 5th grade will not need to visit Bogan since they will be accessing materials online. If you do not have internet access, contact your classroom teacher.
Online learning days have been designated as March 18, 19, 20, 30, 31, and April 1, 2, 3. We will still observe our planned Spring Break the week of March 23.
Family guide on how to use Google Classroom.
We have ordered some wifi hotspots that would allow you to access the internet on the device we sent home using your cell phone service. Contact your classroom teacher if you need this.
We thank you in advance for your understanding and patience as we embark on this new learning experience for us all.
Wifi Update
There is a delay in receiving devices but someone from the district will contact you when the Hotspots become available.
There have been a few companies offering to help.
Spectrum is offering free broadband and WiFi to students without it:
The company says free broadband and Wi-Fi access will be available for 60 days to households with K-12 and/or college students.

During this time away from school please avoid large gatherings, cover your coughs using your elbow, avoid the touching of your eyes, nose and mouth, and wash your hands frequently.
