Due to road construction in Deep Summit, we will be temporarily relocating the bus stop on Douglas Ave and Hunt Street to Douglas Ave and 74th Ave. This will begin on Wednesday, September 15th. Thank you.

There is no doubt that the last 18 months have been very challenging on all fronts. The social work team wants to offer the best support that we can to our staff as well as our students/families. We know that, at times, staff does feel uncomfortable reaching out for support or sharing their own thoughts and feelings about what is going on. We are working hard to offer you space to do that this year. One way that we want to do this is by offering you an opportunity to share with us some of the things that may have impacted you over the last few months. While this is not required, we encourage you to complete this staff survey. Your answers are confidential and will only be reviewed by the social workers and school psychologists. We will be reaching out to all staff, regardless of survey completion, to offer support. However, information you provide here will help us best support you. Please do not hesitate to reach out to your school social worker with any questions: Graves- Elizabeth Calderon or Michelle Mendez , Heritage- Michele Clark or Rebecca Stevens, Walker- Chris Hofer, Walsh- Maggie Fletcher, and Wharton- Meredith Schilsky. https://forms.office.com/r/6n8gFhvuPQ
