You've got mail!
We’ve sent a test email to our entire district. If you received it, you don't need to take any further action!
If you did not receive the email, please get in touch with your child’s school to join the mailing list. Only those on your child’s contact list will be eligible to join.
Being on our email list is essential for staying informed. Because our district text messages have character limits, we often follow up with important details via email.
Thank you for being part of our community!
