Upcoming Week 3/9-3/13

First of all, thank you for your patience as we wade through these uncharted waters. As a parent, I know how unsettling it feels right now, and as a teacher, I am grateful to you for putting your trust in me, in Eastgate, and in BSD. I promise I am doing everything I can to keep your students, first and foremost, healthy at school, and secondly, calm during this very confusing time.
