Good afternoon Doss families and community. Below is our revised draft virtual learning schedule.  We found our original schedule was extremely difficult for our many working families to support virtual learning.  While no schedule created will be able to represent wants/needs from our entire community, we feel this change will support the continuation of virtual learning into the fall semester.  We will discuss at today’s parent/principal coffee at 12:00.
