Happy Labor Day weekend to all! We are so excited to see students tomorrow! We continue to ask you for your patience as we get through the first week. We’ve reimagined our systems to meet health and safety guidelines. Once we see these systems in action, we may need to make slight changes to ensure that all runs as smooth as possible. We will communicate updates! There is no problem we can’t solve together as a community. Thank you!
Personal Protective Equipment training for all of our health check screeners! Thank you FHGS nurses. We will be ready for Tuesday!
Congratulations to all of our exceptional Slate Valley Staff!
