About this page...
A priority moving forward will be to keep members informed and engaged as we collectively grapple with the question of what school will look like in the fall. At this point, there are far more questions than answers, and change may be the only constant. No matter what lies ahead, I am confident that we will get through it together.
As we receive new guidance and work through plans for the next school year, we'll do the best we can to use this area of our site to collect, organize and share what we have with you. We do so with full confidence that our members will respect all the uncertainties that surround us, and that you will, as always, demonstrate patience and understanding as we work through the many, many challenges presented here.

Planning Document
For the last several weeks, we've been gathering and reviewing research on all the questions we'll need to answer before September. We're organizing that work in a series of planning documents. These definitely do not represent all the questions we need to answer, nor do they represent any position taken be the Union or the District. They are an attempt to brainstorm and gather our thoughts, questions and concerns in a way that may be useful.
