Since the Air Quality Index has improved and is back in the good (green) range, restrictions have been lifted and students will be allowed to go outdoors.


Correction: Due to poor air quality conditions, all outdoor activities are cancelled today, June 8th. After-school programs will be held indoors. We hope to return to normal operations tomorrow and will update families ASAP
