Dear Parents and community,
 
The District has been experiencing a major problem with our email system since Monday 5/14/2012.  Due to this problem, most staff are not able to access or send any email from their accounts. 
 
We believe that the system will back online by the end of the day Thursday. We apologize for any inconvenience that this email outage has caused. Until then, please call the school building should you need to contact a specific staff member.
 

Graduation 2012
