PLEASE NOTE: Please note that while these schedules are “final”, this is a living document that may need to be updated as it is put into actual practice. The first week of school will not have an Asynchronous Wednesday, meaning that your students will have synchronous learning each day for that four day week. Please plan on following the schedule for a typical M, T, Th, F for that week.

The calendar is also available for all of our families to view on our Hill Campus Community Page in BLEND.
