 Upcoming Dates/Information

• Forecasting surveys are now open for all grade levels.  
• Mandarin in 7th grade (update/clarification) -  
  District information was shared with us in January indicating that our relationship with the Confucius Institute was most likely ending, which means we are not anticipating the funding to staff this position, moving forward.  We are exploring some options for students who have started Mandarin and want to continue for 8th grade, but at this point are still making decisions about how that will look. Communication will be sent if we have more information about this elective option.
