Good morning. I wanted to thank everyone for supporting our school budget in last week's referendum. A huge thank you to our students, teachers, staff and families for all of your efforts this past school year.

To help me gain a better understanding of my respective areas of strength and challenge as a leader of the SSD, please take some time to complete a survey.
