    Taft Update 9/5

    We are excited to welcome students back to Taft this week! Thank you for your patience and flexibility as we always work out those first day routines.

    Our staff members have planned a deliberately slow start to academic instruction to provide ample time to orient students to the building, our safety protocols, and the technology being used in class. Please know that students are not falling behind in these opening days as we ensure that the tools and protocols needed for success are implemented with fidelity.
