Covid-19 Vaccine: Last week a “one-call” was made by the district in regard to available Covid-19 vaccines. As the district receives these opportunities they will continue to share out the information. At this point in time I have not received any other information about the vaccine from a district perspective. I encourage you to research locations that are providing the vaccine to teachers in your area.
