The school board reviewed the proposed changes to our schedule and as we were trying to capture more instructional time, we decided to adjust our changes to better accommodate parents, staff and most of all learning. The final change and schedule for our school is:
Start Time: 7:55 Every school day
Release Time Monday, Tuesday, Thursday and Friday: 2:25
Early Release day: Wednesdays 12:45
We will continue to offer people the option of after school child care through the Fern Ridge Child Development Center and we will answer any questions anyone has regarding these changes at 541-935-8214.
