Despite the challenges in this current time, our support team hopes to continue supporting you and your child as a whole; whether that be academically, socially, emotionally, or medically, through these resources and direct communication.
Our purpose is to ensure every student and family is receiving the necessary resources to be successful.
The team is comprised of support staff around the school who are knowledgeable and experienced with not only your children, but their academic, social, emotional, and health needs during these confusing and challenging times.

We understand this is a very challenging time for our students and their families. As a team, we would like to provide not only resources but time with us to express concern, worry or question. We will be offering "office hours", a time where student or parent can schedule a meeting with us. Our hope is that we can provide flexible timings to support parents or their children through these initial 30 minute conversations. They can be used to discuss concerns or resources a family may need, or to have a brief initial conversation with a student who may need more support.
Our team members will have availability in the mornings, afternoons, and evenings to meet the possible needs of a family's busy schedule. While all team members may not be available to meet during these times, there will be at least one person present to relay information to the appropriate support person.
