Independent Study
Good Morning! I just wanted to share a little post - I trust you are doing okay during this time of extreme closeness to family! I will be sending student weekly contracts out each day - since I cannot collect, I will trust that you are able to complete them. I still need them on record for auditing purposes. If you struggling with anything - email me. Remember, I will be sending your work via email, so if there are updates/ changes - let me know. Be Safe - As always, you can reach me via email sbaillie@chusd.org
