WELLNESS WEDNESDAYS: Numerous members of our school community have regularly discussed the importance of social and emotional health and well-being, especially during these unprecedented times. I am sure many of you would agree that the impact that Covid-19 had on our schools was overwhelming.
To begin addressing some of these concerns, we began "Wellness Wednesdays" in November 2020. These times continue to offer students and staff the opportunity to partake in un-scheduled time out of the classroom.
NOTE: Due to special scheduling, these times may be altered. Notification will occur via: the weekly e.notify from Mr. Salutari.
