Welcome back everyone - WE ARE READY FOR HYBRID!!!

 To: All students and families

From: Mr. Falcon and Mr. Medeiros



Both of us have been working very hard preparing for the new hybrid learning setup and we can't wait to begin. Next week we finally get to meet our brand new 6th Grade class and reveal the projects we have planned for them. To start, we are rolling out a brand new program called Tynker.com to support our computer science learning initiatives.



    The following week both the 7th and 8th grade students will return and from there all the preparation and new ideas we have will be presented. Some of the 7th and 8th grade students have already been signed up for Tynker and are currently working through an introductory lesson. 

Stay tuned for more updates.
