Today we sent a message to students and families that announced several major efforts: our COVID dashboard, a color-coded operating status, and ongoing surveillance testing; read the full message. In terms of the dashboard, see details on this page. It is important to […]
We’re almost to the point where our upperclass students will be all moved in; today is their last day for that. Classes start on Wednesday, so very soon your students’ free time will dramatically decrease as their academic workload increases. I have been in 1-on-1 […]
It’s Friday – after what seems like a long week indeed. The weather is unnaturally cool today, only mid-70s – and overcast. Definitely not normal August weather! We have lots of points to cover today. Here goes. In a normal, non-COVID year, a few days […]
