Superintendent's Update - March 2022; March has been a very busy month, filled with lots of activity and success across our campuses. Among our celebrations this month, we recognized the achievements of our musical education department and athletes, and also some of the improvements to our campuses that will provide inspiring spaces for our students. Along with providing a strong foundation for our students to achieve, we are also continually focused on ensuring that our schools are safe learning environments.
