Better interacting with admin and parents. Not everything can be achieved via email or websites. However they have made great strides in providing a food pantry to those that need it in our district.

This year, there are plenty of teachers willing to help their students and they provide reassurance for each of them. Our teachers want the best for their students and take their time to help students who struggle.

The teachers need to take more control over their classrooms and parents need to be more involved. There was a lot of agricultural involvement that was offered to the students.
