I am excited to connect with you one last time before the summer break begins. 

Another way to connect is by downloading the TEAMS app or log into office.com. The student’s username/email is their 6-digit clever log-in. See example....
For example: 123456@student.scsk12.org.  Next enter your 8-digit password that you use for Clever, it should be your birthday.

I look forward to seeing you all😊

Please allow your children to join me for a virtual game on the TEAMS platform Monday, May 18 at 1:00 P.M. I will send the code and the access details prior to the meeting. I look forward to seeing them!!
